About

Störtebeker Chocolate Stout from Stralsund presents a refined take on the style, balancing chocolate and dried fruit with subtle bitterness. At 5.7% ABV, it remains approachable despite its full flavour profile. The mahogany-hued pour shows reddish tones and releases aromas of dried plum, sour cherry, cocoa and rose. The palate delivers sweetness from caramel malt and pronounced cocoa notes, with noticeable residual sweetness that frames the finish. The aftertaste lingers with bittersweet chocolate. Brewed since 1827 in this former Hanseatic League city, Störtebeker Braumanufaktur bridges German lager tradition and contemporary craft beer. This stout exemplifies the brewery's approach—solid structure and genuine drinkability without pretension.
