This is a copy of an Export Stout brewed by Youngers of Edinburgh in 1897. Strongly hopped, well-balanced with luscious chocolate and cocoa flavours. There is a maltiness to the beer, which is not due to residual sugars. It was heavily hopped as befits an export beer and matured for many months so that the hops could mellow and contribute to the complexity of the beer.

Bottle. A clear, dark brown beer with a small, dense, light beige head. Lightly roasted notes, some coffee and a decent hoppy touch in the aroma. Pleasant but a bit boring. The flavor too is roasted, as expected, it’s dry yet lightly sweetish, and with a nice bitterness. Some orange peel bitterness too, but not tasting orange. Lasting roasted finish, dry. Sort of nice, but a bit too dry I think. 120623
