Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for 150 Watt

◎ Appearance

150 Watt presents a deep ruby-red hue with excellent clarity and a dense, cream-colored head that clings persistently to the glass. The lacing is pronounced and structured, coating the walls with fine foam lines as you drink. The body is visibly full, suggesting the 10% ABV and substantial grain bill.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with dark dried stone fruits—plums and raisins—complemented by notes of sweet cherry. Beneath these, a gentle toasted bread character emerges, with hints of toffee and subtle spice from the yeast. The aromatic profile is rich and layered without being cloying.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and warming, with dark fruit and caramel sweetness building immediately across the palate. The mid-palate is full and velvety, showing bready maltiness and a whisper of spice that complements rather than dominates. Bitterness is restrained at 25 IBU, allowing the malt complexity to shine while maintaining balance.

◑ Finish

The finish is long and comfortable, with lingering notes of dark fruit and toasted bread gradually fading to a dry, warming aftertaste. The alcohol presence is felt as gentle heat rather than harshness, leaving no sharp edges.

Serve at 12–16°C

Serve at 12–14°C. This is a contemplative beer — warmth unlocks the dark fruit, caramel and complex malt.

Goblet

The wide mouth and heavy base promote head formation and channel rich aromatics toward the nose. Traditional for Belgian strong ales.

Built for cellaring. Age 2–5 years for deeper complexity. Store upright at 12–16°C.
