Carlota, 7% Mexican Stout with Cocoa & Chillies
Thornbridge x Cervecera Macaria
Carlota is a smooth, spicy stout inspired by the magical cuisine of Mexico and created with Cervecera Macaria. This is a complex beer which uses 7 different malts in the grist and as well as hops, we infuse cocoa husks, cinnamon sticks, chipotle chillies and ancho chillies.
Fermented using a Mexican lager strain of yeast, during the maturation phase we add vanilla, more cinnamon and a prodigious amount of ancho, pasilla and mulato chillies, known as the holy trinity of Mole Poblano Mexico national dish. More chipotles are used for a touch of heat and smokiness.
No Mole Poblano would be complete without an indulgent addition of chocolate, so cacao nibs are also blended in to complete the recipe. The resulting beer is a rich celebration of warming spice, raisiny sweetness and chocolate goodness.
