Sweet-toothed dark beer fans recognize Southern Tier Brewing’s Blackwater Series as responsible for serving up some of the most decadent flavors in the scene. They also agree the crème de la crème of this coveted series is the 4.06 rated on Untappd: Crème Brulee Milk Stout.

Marshmallow and French-vanilla espresso notes carry a silky 10% ABV sting on a cloud of amaretto to the nose. This rich and creamy custard divinity Milk Stout even recreates the essence of the dessert’s iconic hard candy shell via touches of toasted burnt sugar.

Brewed with vanilla beans you can vividly taste, Crème Brulee’s dark caramel malts provide high impact roastiness, demonstrating this culinary dish is meant for a bold, bittersweet chocolate Stout. Generous servings of Lactose sugar fill the body with the smoothly sweet vibrancy of Vietnamese coffee.

The magic of Southern Tier is their ability to deliver layers upon layers of indulgence, stopping right before too much becomes too much. Crème Brulee takes you right to the edge. And it’s worth it.
