Guinness Draught clone
Guinness Draught, the kind found in widget cans or bottles, is an Irish dry stout. Guinness has a sharper roast character and more hop bitterness than Murphy’s. The key to making a great clone is using roasted unmalted barley (or black barley) with a color rating around 500 °L.
Brouwerij De Dolle Brouwer: De Dolle Extra Export Stout clone
A Belgian stout; this deep, dark colored beer features lots of coffee and chocolate flavors.
Kiuchi Brewery’s Hitachino Nest Sweet Stout clone
The Kiuchi brewery’s Hitachino Nest Sweet Stout is like a delicately sweetened cappuccino. Dark roasted coffee with dark fruit notes and the unmistakable aroma and flavor of lactose. For breakfast? Sure, and also lunch, dinner . . . and karaoke!
Black Velvet Stout
“I’d like to dedicate this beer to my wife Samantha for putting up with all the brew gear in the bedroom.”
Imperial Stout
“This recipe was constructed for us by John Strantzen, one of Australia’s most successful and generous homebrewers. We’ve been tweaking it for a decade and seemed to be particularly blessed with this batch — it wasn’t an easy decision to offer up bottles for judging!”
Strawberry-Chocolate Stout
Recipe submitted to BYO by Mike Moreken. A strawberry, cherry and chocolate infusion along with some lactose, provide a soft character to this dessert-like stout.
Sweet Stout
The aptly named sweet stout shows a balance between sugary sweetness, hop bitterness and roasted malt flavors.
American Stout
Dark and roasty, with a healthy amount of hop bitterness, American stouts are as delicious as they are easy to brew.
