The Morning After Coffee Maple Breakfast Stout Beer Kit - All-Grain

Experience the perfect blend of rich flavors with The Morning After Coffee Maple Breakfast Stout Beer Kit. This all-grain kit is crafted for homebrewers who appreciate a complex stout with a deep, satisfying profile. With an ABV of 8.5% and an IBU of 40, this stout combines the boldness of espresso, the sweetness of pure maple syrup, and the smoothness of vanilla for a beer that feels like a hearty breakfast in a glass.

The malt base is a carefully chosen combination of Maris Otter Pale Malt, Munich Malt 60L, Chocolate Malt, Roasted Barley, Flaked Oats, and Crystal Malt, offering a full-bodied, malty complexity that anchors the flavors. The roasted barley and chocolate malts provide rich, dark coffee and cocoa notes, while the flaked oats contribute a silky smooth texture to the mouthfeel, making each sip feel like a luxurious experience.

The addition of freshly crushed espresso beans at flameout imparts a bold, roasty coffee flavor that perfectly complements the deep malt character. The maple syrup, added at flameout, brings a delicate sweetness that balances the richness of the dark malts and the robust coffee. A split and scraped vanilla bean added to the fermenter rounds out the flavors with a subtle, aromatic sweetness that enhances the overall profile.

With an original gravity (OG) of 1.085 and a final gravity (FG) of 1.020, this stout finishes with a moderate sweetness, giving it a smooth and satisfying finish. The SRM of 40 ensures a dark, opaque color, indicative of its bold and hearty flavor.

Its balanced complexity makes it perfect for savoring on your own or sharing with friends who appreciate quality beer.
