Coral Tónica

◎ Appearance

Very dark brown to black with distinct ruby tones when held to light, displaying the characteristic depth of a properly kilned stout. A light-brown head sits firmly atop the surface, with good retention and defined lacing that clings to the glass as you drink.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced roasted-malt character, bringing forward earthy and slightly smoky notes. Coffee and dark chocolate aromatics emerge clearly beneath the roast, with a pleasant fruity undertone—hints of dark berries—that adds complexity and prevents the profile from becoming one-dimensional.

◐ Taste

On the palate, roasted and chocolatey notes dominate the entry, followed by a caramel sweetness that balances the inherent dryness of the grain bill. A moderate hop bitterness builds through the mid-palate without dominating, while a smooth mouthfeel and light body—achieved through the inclusion of unmalted corn—keep the beer refreshing and invigorating rather than heavy.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and lingering, with coffee and toasted-malt notes persisting on the palate. A pleasant hop bitterness rounds out the aftertaste, leaving no cloying residue.
