De Dolle Export Stout

Stout from De Dolle Brouwers, in Esen, created at the request of its American importer B. United. The first batches, a variant of Oerbier with more roasted malt and candi sugar, were 9% alcohol; the current recipe, drier and without candi sugar, is 8%. Roasted malt aroma, full and bitter palate, dry finish. Bottle-conditioned, brewed only a few times a year, each batch with a different recipe.
