Desserts and sweets generally call for beers with higher alcohol content and flavor, because they complement sugar well. The different types of desserts call for different styles of craft beer, such as:
Fruit Beer: is a style with a fruity aroma and flavor, which will vary according to the fruit used in the preparation. There may be some acidity, if the fruit itself is sour. The flavor of hops and malts is not noticeable. Spectacular pairing with cheesecake and panna cotta.
Stout: style that is full-bodied, dry and creamy, with flavors of caramel and coffee. Its toasty notes pair perfectly well with chocolate cakes and ice creams, plus many people will prepare desserts with stout beers.
BarleyWine: The most relevant characteristic of this style is the high level of bitterness, with high alcohol content that is balanced with the sweetness of the malt and the fruity taste of the yeast. Aromas and flavors of hops, with notes of toffee, caramel and wine, perfect to drink with a crème brulée.
