Dessert Time!

Kros Strain Brewing Dessert Dreams

I am a big fan of Mexican Chocolate Stouts! When Kros Strain Brewing released Dessert Dreams, I had to try it.

One of the key characteristics I look for in this type of stout is to get that spicy heat in the finish. I can imagine it takes some experimenting to hit that sweet spot and Dessert Dreams did that. A very distinctive heat from the habaneros, guajillos, and ancho chiles.

The body of the stout is smooth and semi-sweet from the ghana cocoa nibs and lactose. The ABV is 6% so not too heavy to enjoy the 16 oz pour after dinner!

Great dessert beer and I highly recommend this one.

Cheers!
