Dutch Bargain

Dutch Bargain Black Tropical Beach is a bold American Stout that captures the evocative contrast of a volcanic coastline. Jet black in the glass, it releases an intense bouquet of dark chocolate and roasted coffee beans, elegantly interlaced with a lush, tropical coconut character. This tropicalized stout balances the aggressive roast and firm bitterness expected of the style with a surprisingly juicy mouthfeel. The 8% alcohol provides a smooth, integrated warmth that carries notes of toasted coconut and resinous hops through a lingering, roast-forward finish. It is a complex, dark journey where charcoal-like roast meets creamy, sun-drenched tropical fruitiness.

Appearance. Opaque, jet black (SRM 40) with a large, persistent light-tan to light-brown head that displays excellent retention and lacing.

Aroma. High intensity roast profile featuring dark chocolate and espresso. This is heavily complemented by a distinct, sweet toasted coconut aroma. Low resinous hop notes and moderate fruity esters are present, alongside a clean, subtle alcohol presence.

Taste. Initial impression of bittersweet chocolate and heavily roasted malt, followed by the rich, creamy flavor of coconut. Medium-high bitterness from both roasted grains and citrusy hops balances the low malt sweetness. The finish is medium-dry with a lingering charred grain character and a touch of tropical fruitiness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a notable creaminess and a juicy quality that softens the roast. Carbonation is moderate to high. A smooth, well-integrated alcohol warmth is evident but never harsh or acrid.
