Sober Brummie Review
When I first tried Sober Brummie, I was pleasantly surprised by its depth. The stout pours a rich, dark brown with a frothy tan head, inviting you to dive in. On the nose, it presents a pleasant mix of roasted malt and subtle chocolate notes, typical of a good stout.
The flavor follows through with a smooth body, showcasing dark chocolate and coffee undertones that are well-balanced. However, I did find the sweetness a touch overwhelming, which might not appeal to everyone. The aftertaste is clean, with just a hint of bitterness to round things out.
Sober Brummie stands out in the crowded field of alcohol-free beers, particularly for those who appreciate a stout. Birmingham Brewing has crafted a drink that respects the essence of stout while remaining alcohol-free, making it suitable for a wider audience.
Overall, it’s a commendable effort that, while not perfect, provides a satisfying experience for those seeking a non-alcoholic stout. I would recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy a hearty beer without the alcohol.
