Poured to a BrewDog Snifter.

This beer is made in collaboration with another brewery, Hop Sin from Sintra and Casa do Preto, a pastry shop from Sintra. The deal here is to create a pastry stout using Queijadas de Sintra, which is an egg tart from sintra, using laminated dough, pastry filling, cinnamon among other.

A. Body is dark and beautiful, creating a dark brown rich head of 1 inch thickness.
S: The aroma is mouthwatering as the sweet tones of cinnamon, roasted coffee and nutmeg combine together in a heavenly way. This smells amazing.
T: The taste starts off with a huge sweet tone incoming from the egg filling and the cinnamon, it brightens up the beer pretty well. We then move on into a bitter tone of chocolate notes, coffee notes, all wraping around the first sweet tones like a perfect pastry stout. On another bitterness note, the hops are still fresh and are not overpowering, creating the balance needed for a good pastry stout.
M: Body is high. Carbonation is good. Alcohol is barely noticeable. Bitterness is mild and mostly incoming from roasted malts and not from hops.
O: Aside from Dois Corvos Casamentos e Baptizados, this might be another pretty good portuguese reference when it comes to pastry stouts. Well done Oitava Colina & friends. :clap:
