For decades there has been a ‘widget’ that gives cans of a well known Irish beer a creamy, thick, full head. After vandeStreek installed a nitrogen generator to carry out numerous production processes in the brewery, it was only logical to also put the nitrogen to use to replicate this style. Therefore Hard Pour Coffee Stout is saturated with nitrogen during canning.
To get the sought after velvety effect in your glass you should do the following: a short, vigourous shake of the can; open and pour quickly into the middle of a large glass – not slowly down the side. Then enjoy Hard Pour with a creamy head!
VandeStreek Brouwerij is a new craft brewery based in Utrecht in the Netherlands. The beers are modern, full of flavour, challenging and creative – above all, top quality. They are brewed by a team of serious beer enthusiasts engaged in creating new flavours and techniques. But they all approach their task in a joyful manner, creating as much happiness as possible in the process. So, to them brewing beer is just like being in a ‘playground’.
They have collected numerous accolades at the World Beer Awards and International Beer Challenge.
