Turning Point Affogato Dreams

Intro

Turning Point Affogato Dreams is a dessert-style stout from Turning Point Brewery that brings the coffee-rich temptation of affogato into the glass. Inspired by espresso, vanilla ice cream and chocolate, this beer offers a full, creamy body with a subtle bitterness that tempers the sweet edge. The aromas of dark roasted coffee, vanilla and cocoa come together in a refined finish that suits after-dinner moments or a luxurious break in the afternoon. Untappd reviews mainly highlight the coffee and vanilla notes, which makes this beer appealing to fans of dessert stouts and refined flavour experiences.

Serving tips 🍺

• Coffee and vanilla aroma - An espresso-like aroma with a creamy body gives a dessert-like experience in every sip.
• Soft, full texture - Lactose and vanilla make the stout silky smooth, while cocoa notes add a subtle bitterness that doesn't dominate.
• Balanced finish - Roasted coffee notes end in a smooth, long aftertaste that lingers well.

Food pairings 🥘

• Chocolate and coffee desserts - The combination amplifies coffee flavours and chocolate undertones; ideal with chocolate cake, tiramisu or coffee ice cream.
• Creamy cheeses - A cheese board with brie or camembert lets the creamy side of Affogato Dreams speak and offers a nice contrast with salty elements.
• Dark sweets and nuts - Walnuts, caramel and dark dried fruit add complexity without overpowering the sweetness.
