Luscious dessert stout infused with chocolate and vanilla.
Dessert Stout, Imperial Stout
Ahh, chocolate and vanilla—the magic combination that has ruled the world of desserts since the Victorian age. We wanted to brew a beer that pays homage to this perfect pairing, and that’s how Hella Nibs was born.
Starting with a rich imperial stout recipe, we infuse the beer with HELLLLLLA cacao nibs and a kiss of vanilla for balance.
If you’re a fan of big, bold dessert beers, this is the brew for you!
The base for Hella Nibs is a mix of millet and rice malts, selected to emphasize caramel sweetness and a beautiful black hue. We then add a touch of buckwheat malt and flaked oats, which contribute a creamy mouthfeel, blending into the background and helping the flavors pop.
The end result is a lush, fudgy, chocolate-forward drinking experience that goes great with—or replaces—dessert. Life is short; drink dessert first!
