Moersleutel Banana Splitter Stout – Pastry Stout 12%

So Aromatic, You’ll Smell It Through the Can

Moersleutel Banana Splitter Stout is an unapologetically decadent 12% pastry stout that turns a classic dessert into a bold, luxurious beer experience. From the moment you crack the can, the aroma hits hard — so intense you could swear you’re smelling it before the pour.

Built around ripe banana, rich cacao, caramel, and vanilla, this stout is designed to deliver maximum dessert impact while staying balanced and deeply satisfying.


The Craft Behind Banana Splitter Stout

Dessert Inspiration, Engineered for Depth

This stout takes inspiration from the iconic banana split, translating its flavors into liquid form with Moersleutel precision.

Peruvian Cacao: Nutty, Floral & Warm

We used high-quality Peruvian cacao nibs, which bring:

  • Deep chocolate richness

  • Nutty warmth

  • Subtle floral and spiced notes

Rather than overpowering sweetness, the cacao adds elegance and complexity.

Banana, Caramel & Vanilla: Classic Dessert Layers

  • Banana provides creamy, ripe fruit character

  • Caramel adds warmth and sweetness

  • Vanilla ties everything together with smooth, dessert-like softness

Dual Yeast Fermentation

A carefully selected blend of Belgian and English yeast adds:

  • Gentle fruity esters

  • Soft spice notes

  • Balance between sweetness and depth

This yeast combination enhances complexity while keeping the beer refined.


Tasting Experience

Aroma: Explosive & Dessert-Driven

The aroma leaps from the glass with:

  • Ripe banana

  • Chocolate fudge

  • Caramelized sugar

  • Vanilla cream

  • Subtle floral cacao notes

Bold, rich, and instantly inviting.

Flavor Profile: Sweet, Smooth & Indulgent

Each sip delivers:

  • Creamy banana sweetness

  • Deep chocolate from Peruvian cacao

  • Warm caramel notes

  • Vanilla custard

  • Light fruity and spicy yeast character

Despite its intensity, the stout remains balanced and never cloying.

Mouthfeel & Finish: Thick, Silky & Warming

  • Full-bodied and smooth

  • Luxuriously thick texture

  • Gentle warmth from the alcohol

  • Long, dessert-like finish

At 12% ABV, Banana Splitter is rich and powerful, yet dangerously drinkable.
