Mad Scientist Beer

A Danish microbrewery that treats every brew day like a laboratory experiment rather than a fixed recipe. Mad Scientist experiments across styles – from classic IPAs to wild specialty brews with unconventional ingredients – always driven by curiosity. The name is no accident: no beer is too sacred to be reinvented.

  • Bottle of Mad Scientist Love in a Foreign Language barrel aged stout
    Item no.: 22225-424112

    In an industrial quarter of Budapest, a small team of brewers experiments its way toward beers that don't always follow the recipe book. Love in a Foreign Language is one of the results - a barrel aged Imperial Stout, heavy with dark chocolate and warm from months on wood.

    Expert description of Mad Scientist Love in a Foreign Language

    Mad Scientist is a Hungarian brewery from Budapest, known for an experimental, boundary-pushing approach to beer. Love in a Foreign Language is their barrel aged take on an Imperial Stout, where the heavy, dark base flavour is joined by warm wood notes and vanilla from the barrel ageing. The result is a beer with dessert-like depth, where classic stout elements melt together with a softer, rounder character from the wood.

    The brewery builds on a solid base of barley and wheat malt, letting the beer draw character from the barrels over a long period so vanilla and wood become a natural part of the flavour rather than a bolted-on layer. That gives a full-bodied, silky texture that stout lovers with a taste for the experimental will find hard to resist.

    Tasting Notes

    Aroma

    Dark chocolate, roasted malt and a hint of coffee, with warm notes of oak and vanilla in the background.

    Taste

    Caramel, cocoa and dried fruit, carried by a soft, warm finish from the barrel ageing.

    Finish

    Long and round with lingering vanilla and a light sweetness that fades gently.

  • Can of Mad Scientist Truffle Stout with black label
    Item no.: 22225-424113

    Truffles belong in the gourmet kitchen, not on a beer bottle - but Mad Scientist has never cared much for that kind of rule. Truffle Stout is the brewery's answer to the question: what happens when an earthy luxury ingredient meets roasted malt?

    Expert description of Mad Scientist Truffle Stout

    Mad Scientist from Budapest is known for experimenting its way toward beers that sit somewhere between the brewhouse and the gourmet kitchen. Truffle Stout combines a classic, dark stout base of roasted malt and cocoa with an addition of truffle, giving the beer an earthy, almost luxurious depth usually found only in cooking. It is a beer built to surprise, without losing touch with the solid stout craft it is built on.

    The roasted malt provides a foundation of coffee and dark chocolate, while the truffle layers on an umami note that ties everything together into something more complex than an ordinary stout. The texture is soft and rounded, with a finish that hints more of gourmet cooking than brewhouse.

    Tasting Notes

    Aroma

    Roasted malt, cocoa and light coffee, with an unmistakable, earthy truffle aroma in the background.

    Taste

    Dark chocolate and caramel with a subtle umami note from the truffle, giving an almost culinary depth.

    Soft and rounded with lingering truffle and cocoa notes.
