Evil Twin Soft DK Inspired by Baby Poo

Nope I’m not making this up.  Details from USAToday in an interview with Jeppe:

One of the best compliments you could share with Evil Twin Brewing’s experimental brewmaster Jeppe Jarnit-Bjergsø is that his beer reminds you of shit or, more specifically, baby shit. After all, the kernel of his idea for Soft Dookie (or “Soft DK,” as it’s named and sold in the States), a well-balanced, surprisingly light stout with hints of vanilla on the nose and bananas, molasses, and wood on the palate, was sparked one morning while tending to his young son.

“I know this is a stupid story, but I was changing my son’s diaper, and when babies are newborn their poo actually smells a little bit like vanilla,” he says. “You know, it’s soft and it’s sweet so, yeah, that’s when I started thinking about the beer. It’s all fun, as long as it tastes good.”  Full details here.
