Ghost of Neopolitan
Saugatuck Brewing Company

Not much head, but tastes great

Date on can isn’t 3/31/2021 so this is obviously not retired!

 

Enjoyed it this summer. First white stout I ever got to try. The creaminess is there but not overpowering like some other dessert stouts. The sweetness is definitely there as well but again, not enough to make it seem like a Coke. If you like these dessert stouts but want one that is turned down a notch and also one you can drink 2 or 3 of before you're sick of it, this is the one for you. All the layers of flavor are here from the chocolate taking the lead, followed by sweet strawberry and creamy vanilla on the backend.

 

pours hazy , good neopolitan taste noy overwhelming - their reg. neopolitan and their nitro neopolian were much better

16 ounce can, canned on 10/10/19, thanks to my buddy Denis for this one! Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a slightly hazy amber/copper color with about an inch light tan head that stuck around a while. There's also a good amount of lacing. Aroma is nice, the brew smells mostly like strawberry and vanilla, along with some chocolate, grainy malt and a slight vegetal aroma that I've picked up from other white stouts. Taste is similar to the aroma, with strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, nutty and grainy malt flavors. Luckily the vegetal aroma didn't carry over to the taste. Also recommend to let this warm up a while as I thought it tasted better as it did. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's a bit creamy and slick with a moderate amount of carbonation. Easy enough to drink. I thought this was a solid overall brew, wouldn't mind trying this again in the future!
