British brewer infuses beer with famous TT chocolate
Thursday 18 February 2021
English brewer Phil Saltonstall was so impressed with TT chocolate that he has brewed beer out of trinitario cocoa beans. -
On a recent trip to Trinidad, English brewer Phil Saltonstall was introduced to some of the best tasting chocolate in the world, made, of course, from trinitario cocoa beans. So, naturally, he did what he does best – he made a beer out of it.
“If you’re a brewer you look for flavour pairings in the world that exist already and you just put them in the beer,” Saltonstall told Business Day in a telephone call last week.

Phil Saltonstall of the Malton-based Brass Castle Brewery NORTH Yorkshire and Trinidad & Tobago may have little in common geographically, but thanks to an innovative Malton brewery they are now linked by beer. Brass Castle Brewery in Malton has teamed up with a Caribbean cocoa producer more than 4,000 miles away, to produce the unique chocolate beer. The brewery has collaborated with the Trinidad & Tobago Fine Cocoa Company to launch the Trinitario brew, using some of the finest cocoa in the world. Whereas most chocolate beers in the UK are flavoured with lactose, vanilla, and chocolate essences, Trinitario’s flavour will come entirely from the cocoa, with the nibs being steeped during fermentation and conditioning.
