Singapore Stout (Tropical Stout aka Foreign Extra Stout)

Tropical Stouts are less roasty and bitter than other stouts and can be quite sweet without much roast or bitterness. Think of the style as either a scaled-up dry and/or sweet stout, or a scaled-down Imperial stout without the late hops. Originally high-gravity stouts were brewed for tropical markets (sometimes known as “Tropical Stouts”). Some bottled export (i.e. stronger) versions of dry or sweet stout also fit this profile.

The Singapore Stout contains:

• Malt extract
• Milled specialty grain
• Hops
• Priming sugar
• Fining agents
• Lalbrew Nottingham Ale Yeast
  

Each Bacchus Batches kit is formulated to produce a specific style of beer. Since the quantity and alpha acid in hops vary sometimes significantly from one year to the next or from one bale to the next we adjust the varieties and amounts of hops in Bacchus Batches kit to provide consistent results.
