From the brewer:

“Originally created as a bigger bodied and stronger version of Porter, Stout (originally Stout Porter) has developed into its own range of styles. Irish Dry, Foreign Extra, Sweet, Oyster and Imperial; these variants range from below 4% ABV to well over 15%.

Stronger stouts lend themselves perfectly to barrel aging, where they can pick up many nuances from the oak, flavours of the liquor that was originally produced in the barrels, and, occasionally, even acquire some bugs and wild yeasts along the way.

08|04 DRY IRISH STOUT  –  Our take on a classic Irish dry stout displays a fruity flavour imparted by the traditional Irish yeast. A late whirlpool addition of Pacifica Hops provides extra fruit aroma atop solid bitterness and compliments the smooth body and chocolatey roast character of this dark ale.”
