White Stout - Nethergate Brewery

Pale golden “white stout” with vanilla and cocoa - all the flavour of a stout without the dark colour.

Nethergate’s White Stout plays tricks on the eyes: it pours pale gold like an ale, but drinks like a smooth, creamy stout. Brewed with real vanilla pods and cocoa nibs, it delivers soft chocolate and vanilla notes over a rounded, velvety body.

At 4.5% it is rich enough to feel special but still very drinkable. It is one of Nethergate’s most talked-about beers and a great way to surprise anyone who thinks stouts have to be black.

FAQs

Why is it called “white” stout?
Because it has the flavour and body of a stout, but is brewed to be pale in colour. It is a fun twist on the style and a bit of a talking point.

Is the vanilla overpowering?
No - it is still very much a beer, with subtle vanilla and cocoa notes layered over a smooth pale-stout body.

Who will enjoy it?
Great for stout fans who fancy something different, and pale-ale drinkers who want to explore darker flavours without diving into a heavy porter.
