Black Adder - 12 Bottle Case

DARK. FRUITY. STOUT.

12 x 500ml Black Adder bottles

A dark, bitter stout. Roast and nut aromas with a fruity balance of hops and dark malt provide an excellent lingering finish

A dark ruby “bitter stout”, brewed from Maris Otter and Pearl pale malts, crystal and black malt and Fuggles hops. An equally drying finish has big roast notes, slightly sharp and cocoa powder on the tongue. This is our take on a big dry roasty beer.

BREWING NOTES

From the Brewer: Truly complex beer that connoisseurs will enjoy. A roasty, somewhat salty aroma with a hint of fruit introduces a chocolate palate that’s very light textured for the strength. Hints of red fruit, coffee and spicy bitterness come through.

Notes from the Publican at The Brewery Tap: This is my favourite of the lot and the number one ale that our customers always ask for if it's not on the pumps.

Notes from Charlie Buckle, the owner: Jet black in colour, this stout has roasted malt at its heart. If you need a winter warmer, or just to try something a bit special, you’ve come to the right place.

FOOD PAIRING

This goes with many different foods, but we find it pairs perfectly with our mussels on the menu at The Bildeston Crown:
Steamed mussels, rose harissa, cream, shaved fennel & radish salad

‘The taste is deep and rich, not too overpowering, darker and richer roasted than an IPA or a Bitter, but not so overpowering that you wouldn’t enjoy a few of these in a session’.

Available in firkins and 12 x 500ml bottles
