hopIQ found 10 beers with the same roasted and chocolate character as JW Lees Stout. A dark stout brewed with chocolate malt, malted oats and roasted barley, hopped with Goldings. The aroma combines roast with a hoppy edge. On the palate it is velvety and creamy: layers of cocoa and chocolate over deep-roasted malt, leading into a bittersweet finish. The brewery itself points to the sweeter flavours and restrained hop bitterness that make it more approachable than drier examples of the style. Opaque dark brown with a frothy head. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
