The Malting Hour

08/30/22 • 11 min

Fresh off the release of Dark Secret 16 pre-sale, Brandon and Tony crack open Brickstone's "Dark Secret 15 Vanilla" BA stout. "The nose here is delectable, delivering wisps of toasted marshmallow and dulche de leche. Expect a rich, full mouthfeel, with waves of chocolate covered caramel, sprinkled with toasted almonds. The finish is dessert like, but not overly sweet, evoking the flavors of tiramisu and crème brulée. Vanilla lifted this stout to a whole new level. An absolute must try." https://www.brickstonebrewery.com/ Thanks to Kevin and Deb Goggin for the theme song. Outro music by Fluid Minds
