Off Color Brewing Stoutling Light Stout & Coffee Dino S'mores

STOUTLING
TASTING NOTES

Stoutling offers all the character of a classic Irish style dry stout with less alcohol (3.17% ABV) and calories (100 per 12 oz serving). Notes of red velvet sweetness, cocoa nibs, and dark toast transition into a drying finish. Mellow bitterness from hops rather than roasted malt provide the balance to keep this sessionable beer intriguing.
SECRET TECHNIQUES
Based on the Irish style dry stout, Stoutling is not only lower in alcohol. Stoutling uses no sparge brewing which reduces tannins and softens the mouthfeel, avoiding the drying effect of a high level of grain tannins.
INGREDIENTS
Pale, Flaked Barley, Crystal, Amber, Chocolate, Black, and Roasted Barley, and Magnum Hops

COFFEE DINOS’MORES
TASTING NOTES

Chocolate mousse, marshmallow creme, and rich, dark malts meld with bright notes of raspberry and a undercurrent of blueberry jam from this years addition of a natural process, fruit forward Costa Rican coffee sourced and lovingly roasted by Sump Coffee out of St Louis, MO. A long, slow extraction using a Kyoto drip method accentuates the vivacious fruits, sugary body, and floral character of this phenomenal small batch lot without over extracting acidity. 9.5 % alc/vol
SECRET TECHNIQUES
DinoS’mores combines the brash, American interpretation of Russian Imperial Stouts with bold accents and round flavors with Scandinavian brewing techniques placing a greater emphasis on dark roasted malts and drier body to accentuate bitterness. The amalgam of these two trans-Atlantic approaches results in a very modern and deceptively rich, complex stout.
INGREDIENTS
Pale, Vienna, Wheat, Cara II, Extra Special, Flaked Oats, Dark Chocolate, Black, Roasted Barley, Nugget hops, Marshmallow fluff, vanilla beans, molasses, graham flour, cocoa nibs, coffee!
