Fremont 10th Anniversary Stout 2019 | Barrel-Aged

Technische Details

Verkostungsprofil

Fremont’s 10th Anniversary Stout is a masterclass in barrel-aged blending. Pouring jet black with a mocha-tinted head, the nose delivers chocolate fudge, roasted malt, sweet bourbon, coconut, and vanilla. On the palate, espresso and bittersweet dark chocolate are met by creamy vanilla from the ex-vanilla-extract barrels, while tart Montmorency cherries add a subtle fruity counterpoint. The mouthfeel is velvety smooth and medium-bodied, drinking far below its 12.2% ABV. A long, warming finish of oak, caramel, and coconut rounds out this celebrated Pacific Northwest release.

Lebensmittel-Paarung

Serve alongside a dark chocolate ganache tart with salted caramel — the beer’s vanilla and bourbon notes amplify the bittersweet cocoa beautifully. Alternatively, pair with a slow-smoked beef brisket: the roasted malt and cherry undertones cut through the richness while echoing the smokiness of the meat.
