Brouwerij De Molen is known for bold experimentation, and Miso & Caramel showcases this adventurous approach. This 9.8% ABV imperial stout draws its distinctive character from miso—a fermented soybean paste with koji and salt—added during the boil. The result is a stout that balances dark roasted malt, caramel sweetness, and an intriguing saline edge that sets it apart from conventional stouts.

The interplay of roasted grains and fermented umami creates a layered sensory experience. This is a beer for the curious drinker willing to explore what happens when European brewing tradition meets Asian umami.
