A nanobrewery from the south of Brazil
Dude Brewing is registered on Untappd as a nanobrewery in Caxias do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul. We can't substantiate anything about its founding, the brewers or the equipment, so we leave it at that. No website is known.
The region does tell you something. According to The Oxford Companion to Beer, Rio Grande do Sul and other southern states were where German immigrants started the first Brazilian breweries. Since the 1990s, the craft beer scene in the country has been growing again. A nanobrewery sits at the small end of that scene.
Strong beers with dessert names
From what we have received from Dude, they keep it strong: a barleywine and a stout, both around 10%. The two beers that score highest on Untappd are Dude DU/DE (Affogato Al Cafè Barleywine) and Dude The Amazing Cosmos (German Chocolate Cake).
The names already point to coffee and chocolate cake. We say nothing more about recipes or ingredients, because no source mentions them.
Dude Brewing at Hoptimaal
We have had two beers from Dude, of which one is in stock now. Everything comes in 35 cl, so you pour it like a small bottle for a quiet moment.
At 10% alcohol, you don't drink this ice cold. Take it out of the fridge for a quarter of an hour and pour it into a small glass, so the malt and the heavier notes come through well. Store it cool and dark, and share it with someone if you like.
