16. Dark British Beer

요약

  • 16A(sweet stout) 락토오즈(유당)을 넣어 달게 만든 스타우트. 부상자나 애기엄마들이 먹었다고.   
  • 16B(oatmeal stout) 아이리쉬 엑스트라 스타우트보다 덜 드라이하고, 스위트(밀크)스타우트보다 덜 달다. 오트밀을 적게 넣으면 실키, 많이 넣으면 오일리 혹은 곡물 껍질 떫은맛 남.
  • 16C(tropical stout) 호피, 비터, 로스티함은 내리고 달게x2, 과일 에스테르 뿜뿜
  • 16D(foreign extra stout) 수출 목적으로 도수(브렛 2차발효), 홉 더함. 아이리쉬 엑스트라보다는 도수가 높지만 러시안 임페리얼에는 못 미친다.

      Comments and History

      also known as Foreign stout, Export stout, Foreign export stout. historic versions(before WWⅠ) had the same OG and higher ABV because it had a long secondary with Brettanomyces chewing away it. the difference between domestic and foreign stout versions was the hopping and the length of maturation. history stretching back to the 18th and 19th centuries when they were more heavily-hopped versions of stronger export stout.
