Aus der Flasche (bbe 30.09.2025) im 2022-06 getrunken. Auch dieses üblicherweise nicht saurer Bierstil wird hier nicht von einer Säure verschont. Dieses Stout hat ein tolles cremiges Mundgefühl, ein fruchtiges Aromen von dunklen Weintrauben, wo ich eher eine sehr intensive Rotweinfass-Reifung vermutet hätte, und eine deutliches Kaffee-Aroma. Alles zusammen sicher eine nicht alltägliche Aromakombination. Spannend!

375ml bottle. Jet black colour with small, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, brown head. Sweet-ish, chocolately, dark malty and yeasty fruity aroma, notes of dark chocolate, chocolate sauce, plum, dark berries, hints of blue grapes, raisin. Taste is sweet, chocolately, dark malty, slightly vinous, yeasty fruity, notes of dark chocolate, chocolate sauce, plum, a touch of plum wine, blue grapes, raisin, subtle fruity tartness, morello, roasty undertones, a pleasant alcoholic touch. Viscous texture, smooth and soft, slightly cloying palate, fine and soft carbonation. Quite sweet, but still in balance due to a nice, tart-ish fruity counterpart, dangerously drinkable - very, very nice!

Zacht, romig, rum, chocolade, maar het zuur erin vind ik vrij onaangenaam, ook behoorlijk alcoholisch, geen gelukkige blend… niet alles hoeft brett/zuur hé mannen …
