This collaboration between DosKiwis and Left Handed Giant presents a refined Foreign Extra Stout that balances robust intensity with a refreshing lift. At 7% ABV, the profile leads with a deep, saturating roast reminiscent of dark chocolate and freshly ground espresso. This richness is complemented by a subtle dried fruit ester profile and a hint of molasses. Despite its depth, the beer remains highly drinkable, featuring a moderate hop bitterness and a clean, drying finish that cleanses the palate of its decadent malt weight. It is a masterful display of dark British brewing tradition reimagined for modern sessions.

Appearance. Deep, impenetrable black (approx. 38 SRM). Topped by a dense, persistent tan head that leaves significant lacing on the glass. Opaque and clear of any visible sediment.

Aroma. High intensity of roasted grains featuring prominent notes of bittersweet chocolate and roasted coffee beans. Subtle secondary layers of molasses and black licorice are supported by faint dark fruit esters like raisin. A very low earthy hop character provides a grounded backdrop, with a clean, well-integrated alcohol note.

Taste. Initial impressions of intense dark chocolate and espresso-like roastiness dominate without being harsh or acrid. Medium-high hop bitterness provides a sturdy counterpoint to the malt sweetness, leading into a moderately dry, clean finish. Minimal earthy hop flavors and light vinous esters appear in the mid-palate, concluding with a lingering, pleasant cocoa aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a noticeably smooth, creamy texture. Carbonation is moderately high, providing a refreshing prickle that lightens the dark malt weight. A gentle, pleasant alcohol warmth is present but never sharp or fusel.
