This kit uses a limited run yeast from White Labs that was found on Peruvian cocoa beans, so why not make a chocolate stout with it?! Belgian Stouts are a sub style combining the yeast character of Belgian Dark Strong Ales with the roasted malt flavor and bitterness levels of the Stout family. This kit includes cocoa husks to mash/steep with the grains for a rich dark chocolate flavor. But if you are a true chocoholic you can add on regional cocoa nibs for more flavor!
This kit only has a liquid yeast option since this specialty strain is only available in liquid culture form.
Style: 16C Tropical Stout
Fermentation Temp: 65-75F
ABV: 6.4%
We carry the following cocoa nibs:
Haitian; notes of vanilla, brown sugar, and raisins
Uganda: notes of rich fudge and a hint of raisins.
Philippines: notes of rich fudge, chocolate and malt.
Dominican Republic: notes of cherry, figs and citrus.
Ecuador: notes of walnut, banana, and toffee. These nibs are unique and have a long, deep chocolate flavor with beautiful floral overtones.
Your craft brew kit includes specialty grains, malt extracts, hops, and additives.
Be sure to add two large muslin bag to your order; it is required but NOT included!
