The story of Bhutan begins with a dragon, with thunder in its voice and fire in its heart. It’s the perfect symbol for our Dragon Stout.
Liberal amounts of chocolate malt and roasted barley are added to this beer to give it a deep, dark, black colour as well as lots of coffee and chocolate aromas. The roasted malts will give a slight astringency to the beer, which will be balanced by a slight sweetness added by the Crystal malt.
Magnum hops are used to bitter the beer as they produce a clean, neutral bitterness.
The bitterness given by the hops will accentuate the roasty characteristics of the beer. However, Dragon Stout is in the low end of the bitterness range for stouts so that the consumer may drink more than one in a sitting.

From a can at RBESG 2017. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Strange roasty aroma with chocolate and dark fruits. Medium sweet with fairly moderate flavour intensity, not much bitterness to speak of. Fear enough.

500mL can, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out dry oats and some light, hearty toasted malt. Flavour is very hearty, with lots of oats, light toast, and a touch of dry cocoa. Hearty oats upfront providing a very nice body. A surprisingly excellent beer from a faraway country.
