Blubberdikkejetser #3 Chocolate Banana is the third in Kompaan's pastry stout series—a full-bodied Imperial Stout at 11% ABV that tastes like liquid dessert. Rich chocolate and banana notes combine in a smooth, decadent pour.

Brewed by Kompaan, the The Hague craft brewery founded in 2011 by Jasper Langbroek and Jeroen Ditmarsch, this beer draws on six malt varieties and three hop types. The fruitiness of banana balances the deep chocolate character, creating a sticky, voluptuous experience.

Best savoured slowly, either alone or in good company.
