A Moon Gazer Stotart Caramel stout is here..
and making a name for itself
Stotart is our all new Caramel Stout and boy has it made a big impact and become an instant win, so much so we had to brew it again.
In a way its not surprising as it is a very smooth and sumptuous Stout. But it is also summer but the dark beers have staked their claim and are selling faster than ever – even in the heat.
To be fair this tipple is a particular favourite style of Mrs Moon Gazer who has taken to having a half as ‘one for the road’ – almost in the same way as you have a mint or chocolate at the end of the meal. When you just want to finish off having a couple of beers on a sweet note.
So, what can you expect from our new caramel stout?
The aim is for the malts not to be overpowering but well balanced, rich, complex, full bodied and luxuriant with the roasted malts bringing coffee, chocolate and liquorice flavours, just crying out to be balanced by the sweetness of the caramel. A combination which we hope will leave you wanting more (in a responsible way of course!).
The hops are all British – and in fairness their role is to take a bit of a back seat just to prop up the malts and lactose and caramel.
It is 4.4% abv so not too strong but strong enough to give a robust mouthfeel.
