Hop BroDouble Vision Brewing's "Dessert Island Pastry Stout" has arrived at Mine Mart Tokiwacho Store in Chigasaki. For chocolate bar lovers, this one really hits the spot.
MugiWhat! A beer that tastes like a chocolate bar? That's basically a snack! And it says "dessert-style stout," so it already sounds sweet from the name!
Hop BroExactly. This is a pastry stout. It's a dark beer crafted to create sweet aromas and flavors in a big way, like a drinkable dessert.
MugiPastry means cakes and baked goods, right? So is that actually in the beer? How does it make baked-goods-like sweetness work?
Hop BroIt's not the sweets themselves that are in there, but ingredients and design like brown sugar and cacao. This one is built around flavors reminiscent of nougat, caramel, roasted peanuts, and milk chocolate.
MugiWow, just hearing that sounds sweet! And a chocolate bar recreation? They're really going all in. It completely flips my image of dark beer!
Hop BroAnd since it's 440 ml and 10.5%, it's much richer than it looks. Gladfield malt and roasted malt build the base and support that heavy feel.
Mugi10.5%? It already looks like a special-occasion beer! But for some reason, hearing roasted malt suddenly makes it sound like a grown-up flavor!
Hop BroThe roasting brings out a toasty aroma, so it doesn't stop at sweetness alone. It also has that roasty firmness. That's why it feels dessert-like without ending up just sweet.
MugiI see, so it might be sweet without being too heavy! And if the store has about 500 kinds in stock, even the time spent choosing sounds fun.
Hop BroExactly. Finding unique overseas brews like this in Chigasaki is exciting. Today, this feels like the kind of one bottle after the beach you'd want to chill and open.
MugiI want to drink it too! It works for sweet-tooth drinkers, dark-beer fans will be curious, and this is definitely one to watch out not to miss!
