Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Trumputkim
◎ Appearance
Deep black-brown with a ruby undertone when held to light, characteristic of the style's high SRM. A dense, tan head forms and clings persistently to the glass walls, leaving thick residue with each sip. The body is opaque and viscous, moving slowly across the surface.
◌ Aroma
The nose opens with roasted grain and dark chocolate, followed by layered notes of dried dark fruit — plum and raisin. Beneath lies a gentle coffee earthiness with subtle alcohol warmth that doesn't dominate. Molasses sweetness threads through without cloying.
◐ Taste
The palate enters rich and full, with roasted barley and cocoa leading. Mid-palate reveals layers of dark stone fruit and subtle coffee bitterness that balances the substantial malt sweetness. The alcohol presence is felt as warmth and body rather than sharp heat, making this a beer to sip slowly as the brewery intends.
◑ Finish
The finish is lengthy and warming, with roasted and chocolate notes persisting on the palate. A gentle drying effect follows, leaving dark fruit and mild bitterness in the aftertaste.
