Description

Raw cane sugar, and honestly a close cousin of demerara: the same partly refined crystals with a molasses film, spun a little cleaner so the color and the toffee note come out a shade lighter. Choosing between the two is a question of what the shop stocks rather than what it does to the beer — expect near-full sucrose yield, about 45 points per pound, and a whisper of toffee from either.
