Stag Stout Draught
The draught version of Stag Stout is a medium-bodied, traditional dry Irish stout. Moderately roasted grains set the flavour, hop bitterness is low and a small malt sweetness balances it. The aroma brings coffee and roasted grain with subtle hints of vanilla. The recipe is aimed at drinkers who remember how creamy a pint used to be; the bottled beer of the same name builds on it with cacao and vanilla.
