Jet-black in the tradition of Ireland most popular and well-known beers, this stout has a pronounced roasty, coffee-like flavor and aroma, imparted by a generous helping of roasted barley.
Arguably Ireland most famous export, dry stout has a loyal following all over the world. Our stout kit has a pronounced roasty, coffee-like flavor and aroma, imparted by a generous helping of roasted barley. Hop bitterness enhances the dryness, and the medium body makes for a very drinkable dark beer. This is one of the most popular styles among home brewers; after a few pints, you'll understand why.
I've made this stout several times over the past six years and it's always a winner! I prefer to age it for about 9 months or so because then the flavor gets really good. However, it's still perfectly drinkable after only just a few weeks in the bottle. If you like complex dark beers, you can't go wrong with this one!

Really good.
The kit made for an easy brew day. Strong fermentation. I put it into my mini-keg and let it condition. Served it around 2 weeks later and my brother said it was as good as stout from a bar. I will definitely brew this again.

Very Drinkable
I have never been disappointed with any of the NB recipe kits I have tried. This was no exception. Great taste and very drinkable - in fact it is gone too fast!
