Château Rouge

◎ Appearance

Deep amber to copper-red body with excellent clarity and a persistent, off-white head that clings to the glass with fine lacing. Carbonation is moderate and even, creating a stable foam collar that slowly recedes, leaving delicate trails across the rim.

◌ Aroma

Inviting nose that opens with warm spice notes—coriander, cumin, and hints of caraway—layered over a rich, toasted malz foundation. Subtle floral and herbal undertones emerge beneath, while noble hops provide gentle earthiness without overwhelming the warm spice character.

◐ Taste

Full-bodied entry delivers ripe caramel and dark fruit sweetness, building into a complex mid-palate where the spice blend—particularly coriander—becomes assertive and warming. Moderate bittering from noble hops (30 IBU) sits comfortably in the background, providing structure without harshness. The finish is smooth and lingering, with spice warmth persisting gracefully.

◑ Finish

Dry to medium-dry aftertaste with lingering coriander and subtle herbal notes. The warming spice character fades gradually, leaving a clean, slightly toasty impression.
