Our Sharaku beers hold a special place in our hearts. In a world dominated by hops, we love the opportunity to brew styles that let the malt and yeast character shine. In this oatmeal stout, you get just that.

The heavy amount of malted and flaked oats is complimented by crystal and chocolate malts, giving the beer a silky smooth texture with notes of caramel, and dark sweet fruit reminiscent of over ripened plumbs and blackcurrants. A small amount of roasted barley was added to give the beer a subtle complexity that allows this beer to develop over time, and brings out new flavours as it warms up.

We used a dry English yeast strain to keep the beer crisp and drinkable despite its rich malt character. This yeast helps to give the beer its biscuit, cracker, and toffee light aroma. A small amount of European hops were added for a soft bitterness to balance out the malt sweetness without interfering with the wonderful malt character this beer has to offer. This beer is a great after-work brew to kick back to, offering a soothing way to wind down the day.
