La Bière Noire

Описание

Cell Division's first commercial stout brewed especially for the 6th annual New Zealand Stout Challenge. The Stout Challenge was the perfect opportunity to brew something we have had on our minds for some time. It is a Belgian stout - a less well-known iteration of the stout style. We wanted to create a drinking experience that melded the world of stout with that of a Belgian dark strong ale. A complex malt bill was used to create the colour and depth of a stout, but without the harsh astringency roasted barley can bring. La Bière Noire exhibits bitter dark chocolate notes and moderate levels of sweetness that work in harmony with the dark fruits and gentle, spicy phenolics created by a Belgian Abbey ale yeast.
