About the beer

Vetra BLACK CHOCOLATE is part of the "Vetra Black" special edition from the Italian brewery Vetra, based in Milan, with 6.8% ABV. The recipe stems from the same base as the other variants in this line — Pils, Munich, Carafa, and Chocolate malts, with E.K. Golding and Bramling Cross hops — but adds cocoa beans and lactose, according to the ingredients listed by the producer.

The result is a dark lager with a medium-high body, featuring cocoa bitterness that balances the sweetness of the lactose, and a toasted, chocolaty finish. A bottom-fermented beer, it is designed to accompany or replace dessert.

Pairing:

Chocolate desserts — the affinity between the cocoa in the recipe and the dish is direct.

Digestif — the dense body and bitterness make it suitable to conclude a meal.

Intense cheeses — the beer's bitterness cuts through the richness of these cheeses by contrast.

Roasted nuts — the beer's toasted note finds affinity with almonds and hazelnuts.
