Hopworks Urban Brewery Survival 7 Grain Stout
www.hopworksbeer.com
I reviewed another Hopworks brew a little while ago, Beer #57, HUB Abominable Winter Ale. This beer is made with 7 grains, barley, wheat, oats, amaranth, quinoa, spelt and kamut. They also add cold pressed organic coffee to finish this stout.
A deep dark black colour with a coffee coloured head.
The aroma is filled with chocolate and coffee notes, with undertones of malt and bitterness of the hops.
The taste starts of coffee with a hint of the chocolate. The maltiness
joins the fray and the espresso notes fade and the chocolate fills out
the flavour as the hops come in it creates a bitter dark chocolate
flavour and just fades away cleanly.
A very complex, flavourful and original brew. It is unlike most other coffee stouts I've had, the flavours are more complex and it finishes cleaner. I would certainly recommend it for a try.
