Faxe Stout

◎ Appearance

Deep black color with minimal transparency, characteristic of a full-bodied stout. A dense, tan head forms and clings persistently to the glass walls, leaving distinct lacing with each sip. Carbonation is moderate, contributing to the structured foam retention.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with roasted grain and cold coffee notes, grounded in a rich malted backbone. Chocolate undertones emerge beneath the roasted character, adding sweetness and depth. A subtle dark fruit quality rounds the aromatic profile without dominating.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with smooth roasted malt and coffee flavors that coat the mouth evenly. Mid-palate reveals chocolate notes and a gentle dark fruit presence. Bitterness builds gradually toward the finish, providing balance without harsh edges, while the overall texture remains creamy and full.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and lingering, with roasted and bitter notes persisting on the palate. Aftertaste leans toward coffee and cocoa without becoming sharp or astringent.
