Vietnamese Coffee Cream Ale (5.5%)
$9.00 – $100.00
Last year for Mongrel Bar’s (RIP) birthday beer, we brewed a Vietnamese Iced Coffee Stout. It was a delicious success, but similarly to the handful of other breweries around the world that have had a crack at brewing a stout with the inspiration of a Cà Phê Sữa Đá or Vietnamese Iced Coffee, it was a real challenge to emulate the condensed milk creaminess. While you can add lactose to a stout, the dark malts tend to overpower the lactose creaminess. So this year, for the sake of evolution and a bit of fun, we’ve taken full creative licence and brewed a Vietnamese Coffee CREAM ALE! With hazy golden appearance, its a combination of creamy sweetness met with the flavour of dark roasted coffee beans. Slightly buttery and super sweet from the added milk sugar, a yeast-driven aroma adds a tropical fruit flair to top it all off. It finishes with a light coffee bitterness and incredibly full body. Think our ‘Earl Grey Creme Brulee’ from GABS Festival 2022, but with a coffee forward.
ABV: 5.5%
IBU: 10
Malt: Pale & wheat malts along with crystal malts & flaked wheat.
Hops: Warrior Hops.
Adjuncts: Nebulous coffee beans, enhanced by chicory and a light addition of vanilla bean.
**CONTAINS LACTOSE**
