About

Rauwdouwer is the milk stout from Brouwerij Smeerpijp in Bergschenhoek, crafted by three unconventional brewers known for characterful beers. This dark brown to black stout presents creamy and sweet on the palate, without excess sugar. Coffee and roasted cocoa aromas lead, supported by subtle caramel undertones. Despite its bold appearance—big mouth, thick nose—this milk stout is surprisingly approachable. The full flavour is tempered by the creamy mouthfeel typical of the style. At 6.1% ABV, Rauwdouwer offers a balanced, accessible stout for those who appreciate dark, flavourful beer.
