About This Beer
Left Hand Fade To Black Foreign Stout is a powerful, dark and complex foreign export stout from Left Hand Brewing Company, a highly respected American brewery known for its characterful and consistent craft beer. At 8.5% ABV, this is a stout with real presence, offering layers of roasted malt, dark chocolate, espresso and subtle spice that will appeal to anyone who loves big, flavour-forward dark beers. It is an excellent addition to any order of craft beer Ireland, especially if you are building a mixed case of international and Irish craft beer from our wider craft beer and craft cider range.

Foreign export stout has its roots in stronger stouts brewed for export markets, and Fade To Black takes that heritage and adds a modern twist. Deeply roasty, gently bitter and warming, it gives you everything you would expect from a serious stout while still remaining surprisingly drinkable. This makes it a great option for drinkers who want something more intense than a classic dry stout, without stepping all the way into barrel-aged extremes.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Jet black in the glass with an opaque body and a dense, creamy tan head that leaves fine lacing as you drink.

  • Aroma: Big notes of roasted malt and freshly brewed espresso, supported by dark chocolate, molasses, liquorice and a touch of earthy hop character.

  • Flavour: Intense roasted barley and coffee upfront, followed by bitter cocoa, molasses sweetness, liquorice and a subtle cardamom-like spice. Firm but controlled bitterness keeps the finish dry and moreish.

  • Mouthfeel: Full-bodied and smooth with a slightly chewy texture, moderate carbonation and a long, warming finish that invites slow sipping.

If you enjoy this style, make sure to check out more options in our dedicated Stout & Porter collection, where you will find everything from classic Irish dry stout to imperial and barrel-aged specials.

About the Brewery
Left Hand Brewing Company is based in Longmont, Colorado and has become one of the most recognisable names in American craft beer. Known especially for their dark beers and nitro stouts, they focus on delivering bold flavour with a strong sense of balance and drinkability. Fade To Black has been one of their most talked-about seasonal releases, winning awards and gaining a loyal following among stout fans around the world.

Having Left Hand Fade To Black Foreign Stout available through TheCru.ie means Irish drinkers can enjoy a world-class foreign export stout alongside homegrown Irish craft beer classics. It is a brilliant way to broaden your horizons within craft beer Dublin while still ordering from a local specialist retailer that understands the category inside out.

Food Pairings
Fade To Black Foreign Stout is a versatile food beer that works especially well with rich, savoury and chocolate-led dishes. Great pairing ideas include:

  • Slow-cooked beef stews, braised short ribs or oxtail, where the roasted malt and bitterness complement caramelised meat and gravy.

  • Strong cheeses such as blue, mature Cheddar or aged Gouda, with the stout’s bitterness and roast cutting through the richness.

  • Dark chocolate desserts like brownies, chocolate fondant or flourless chocolate cake, where the beer’s cocoa and coffee notes mirror the pudding.

  • Smoky barbecue dishes with sweet, sticky sauces, where the molasses and roasted notes in the beer link beautifully with the glaze.

For drinkers who like to explore widely across origins and styles, Fade To Black makes a superb addition to a mixed box combining US, European and Irish beers. Browse our Belgian Beer, German Beer, Irish Craft Beer, or Beer Kegs to build the perfect line-up for your fridge or home bar.
