Going back to the days of Dickens, we found our inspiration for this gingerbread stout. The traditional English stout, with its dark roasted malts, is the perfect backdrop for the warming spices of gingerbread like cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and ginger. To go one step further, we increased the strength and added flaked oats to creates a velvety smoothness that mimics the taste of the gingerbread for a warming treat on any winter’s night.
