Raspberries and chocolate are a heavenly combination that we absolutely cannot resist. When the fruity acidity and summery tanginess of the red fruit meet the delicate melting and sinful sweetness of the chocolate, we cannot contain ourselves. The guys and girls from the Uiltje brewery in Haarlem, the Netherlands, seem to feel the same way, because they have turned the dream team into a sinfully delicious beer. I Demand A Raspberry is a high-proof imperial stout that combines the full power of 300 kilograms of raspberries with the chocolatey richness of roasted malt.
The brew will get you going with an impressive 9.5% alcohol and looks extremely good in the glass: velvety mahogany is crowned with hazelnut-brown foam. A luxurious mixture of ripe raspberries, cocoa, oat biscuits and toffee caresses the tip of the nose and entices you to take a sip. A silky-soft blanket of melting chocolate, creamy caramel, juicy raspberries, exotic vanilla and a hint of freshly brewed espresso covers the palate and awakens the desire for more. Sweetness, acidity, roasted aromas and bitterness are masterfully balanced, the alcohol is elegantly integrated into the taste and underlines the play of aromas with a fiery warmth.
