Too Sweet for a Sweet Tooth

Agreed. I love Pumking and Mokah for the sweetness and over the top flavors of these beers, but I could not get Creme Brule down the hatch without feeling disgusting.

 

Same here! Also, when I hear/see "sweet tooth", I always think of cavities and toothache. As far as Southern Tier Creme Brule goes, I liked it, but it was too hoppy for me.

 

It's not the sugar. High Fructose Corn Syrup + other artificial stuff.

 

FYI, open the Crème Brulee, put the cap back on it and drink it the next day, its really something nice; the vanilla is half as strong.

 

My simple rule that makes sense to me- malty:good, sugary:not so good. Creme Brulee was definitely on the sugary side, but I split a bottle, which helped.

 

For me Southern Tier Creme Brulee, Fresh Dark Lord (like less than 2 years old), and Fresh 120 and World Wide Stout are all pretty painful for me to drink.

Had a 5 year old Dark Lord and a 6 year old World Wide Stout that were absolutely great though.

 

I generally really enjoy sweet beers as long as they are also quite boozy. However, certain vintages of Dark Lord have been bordering on undrinkable. Agree on the Creme Brûlée too, I love me some Southern Tier (Chokolat is sweet but is particularly fantastic IMO), but that Creme Brûlée is just too much.

 

Interesting. I thought WWS was a thin bodied, bitter booze bomb.

 

I felt I needed 10,000mg of Metformin and a trip to the dentist after 1 sip of a fresh one.

 

Haha!

 

But is it beer?
I think that is way too sweet as well.

 

Choklat was too sweet for 4 of us to finish.....

Enjoy

 

I have a HUGE sweet tooth, but creme brûlée.......

 

This. So much this. Speaking of sweet tooth....my fillings wanted out of my mouth with Creme Brulee.

 

Samichlaus Helles was the most horrifyingly sweet thing I've ever tasted. Could only take two sips of my 8 oz. pour. To this day, the ONLY beer I never finished.

 

Yup. The after the first third of the bomber I was ready to buy a case. Only made it 2/3 of the way through and haven't had it ever since

 

All Bruery imperial stouts I've had thus far. I honestly don't know why the hell they all have such a great score. They're good, but nothing that completely blows my mind. Perhaps it's just my personal preference? Either way, they are way too sweet.

 

That's an example of a beer I can have one of and be done for the night. I've heard of people putting ice cream in it to make a root beer float, and all I think is...why?? It's already so damn sweet! In fact, I did put ice cream in it (to see what all the hype was about), and after I was done, I thought I was going to go into a diabetic coma or something.

 

Before I even clicked on the link to this thread the Creme Brûlée was the first thought in my mind. Delicious if splitting among a few people, a bit overwhelming even if you're just trying to take down a glass.

Generally milk stouts of any variety tend to have that "too sweet" feeling by the end of a full pour. Again, the perfect bomber beer to share among a few folks.

 

BrewDog Tokyo - Aleady exceedingly sweet from the dark fruits, the beer's 18.2% ABV just compounds that sweetness and warmth. The cloyingly sweet flavors were far too much for me and almost made it a drainpour. I have seen it in stores multiple times since and gives me a slightly sick feeling each time.
