Barista Stout
>
Now Pouring on Cask
For the first time since its launch Barista Stout is on hand pull — and it’s everything you’d hope for.
Smooth, indulgent, and deeply satisfying, this is a stout that brings together two great crafts: brewing and coffee. Dispensed the traditional way, the cask format unlocks a softer, more rounded character, allowing every layer of flavour to shine.
At its heart is a bold espresso profile — freshly roasted coffee notes rising from the glass — balanced beautifully with smooth caramel and a touch of vanilla sweetness. Subtle dark berry tones add depth, while the gentle natural condition of cask delivers a creamy, easy-drinking finish.
This is Barista Stout at its most expressive: rich, velvety, and unmistakably Theakston.
Why Cask?
Cask serving brings a new dimension to Barista Stout. The cask conditioning creates a softer mouthfeel and enhances the balance between roasted bitterness and sweet, comforting notes — making it incredibly drinkable for a stout of this depth.
Perfect For
Whether you’re a coffee lover, a stout enthusiast, or simply curious, Barista Stout on cask is a must-try. Ideal for slow savouring in good company.
