Nørrebro La Granja Stout

The first challenger from Nørrebro, and a coffee stout at that.

This indeed smells of coffee, but interestingly more of cast off coffee grounds than a full blown cup of espresso.

The pour is really quite amazingly watery, with little to no head. At this stage I'm gearing up for another euro blasting. But the taste is in fact rather pleasant. It's not a long lasting or incredibly involved progression but there are notes of milk chocolate, coffee, chicory and roasty flavours that carry you through. Easy drinking due to the light mouthfeel.

Not my favourite stout but a fine effort in its own way and very approachable. 7.5
