About This Beer
The Wicklow Wolf X Butlers Chocolate Truffle Shuffle Gift Pack brings together two beloved Irish producers, offering a premium pairing of chocolate and Irish craft beer. At the centre of the gift box is Truffle Shuffle, a Milk / Sweet Stout brewed by Wicklow Wolf in collaboration with Butlers Chocolate. This 5% stout takes inspiration from Butlers’ signature truffles, resulting in a flavour profile that is smooth, chocolate-led and wonderfully indulgent. With six cans of the beer included, along with a branded Wicklow Wolf stemmed glass and beautifully crafted chocolate treats, this pack is ideal for gifting or enjoying as a complete tasting experience.
The beer itself pours dark and silky, with a soft sweetness from lactose that supports its cocoa and vanilla notes. It’s a stout designed for people who enjoy round, dessert-inspired flavours without harsh bitterness, making it an accessible yet rewarding choice. The chocolates included in the pack enhance the beer’s natural richness, offering a curated pairing straight out of the box. For those interested in similar styles, you can explore more dark and rich options within our Stout & Porter selection.

Food Pairings
The Truffle Shuffle Stout naturally shines alongside chocolate desserts, including brownies, mousse, salted caramel tarts and chocolate fondants. The richness of the beer also pairs wonderfully with vanilla-based desserts such as cheesecake or ice-cream. For a savoury contrast, try matching it with charcuterie, smoked meats, barbecue dishes or strong cheeses like blue cheese or mature cheddar. Its creamy body and chocolate notes make it particularly versatile for pairing with bold flavours.
