PASO ROBLES, California – Firestone Walker launched Mocha Dolce Nitro Stout, an all-new seasonal beer made to heat your soul because the climate turns chilly.
“We enhanced our basic nitro stout and took it to the following degree with the addition of premium Madagascar vanilla beans, whole-roasted espresso beans and cocoa nibs—all of which meld completely with the beer’s wealthy, chocolaty character,” stated Brewmaster Matt Brynildson. “The result’s a clean, creamy beer that reminds you of your favourite latte.”
Mocha Dolce Nitro Stout is a restricted fall-winter seasonal that’s rolling out to all Firestone Walker markets in six pack (12-ounce can) codecs. Mocha Dolce can be obtainable in draft in a non-nitro model for a restricted time.
Curated Flavors To create Mocha Dolce Nitro Stout, the brewing workforce partnered with three of their favourite native and California purveyors: HoneyCo Espresso Roasters in San Luis Obispo; Cooks Flavorings in Paso Robles; and TCHO Chocolate in Berkeley.
“For the espresso beans, we landed on HoneyCo’s single-origin Columbia Granadilla medium roast,” Brynildson stated. “We tried a bunch of various coffees and finally landed on their Columbia Granadilla as an ideal complement to the beer with its nougat and spun caramel flavors.”
He added, “We don’t grind the beans in any respect—we flow into the beer by way of the entire beans. It’s a much less environment friendly option to acquire taste, but it surely prevents any of the bitter qualities that you just would possibly get from over-extraction.”
The Madagascar vanilla beans have been sourced from Cooks Flavorings, a third-generation household enterprise famend worldwide for its vanilla and different spices. Lastly, the cocoa nibs got here from TCHO Chocolate, with whom Brynildson has labored for a number of years.
“These are all wonderful elements that work very well collectively,” Brynildson stated. “We by no means need anybody taste to stay out—we wish them to work in live performance collectively to create this seamless Mocha Dolce character.”
