Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for La Sagra Bohío
◎ Appearance
Bohío presents a deep, intense amber hue with excellent clarity and a dense, persistent head. The color suggests extended malt complexity and careful conditioning. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, supporting a fine lacing pattern that clings to the glass.
◌ Aroma
The nose opens with prominent chocolate and caramel notes, layered with roasted coffee and a subtle baked apple character. These malt-forward aromatics are supported by the warming presence of elevated alcohol, which adds depth without harshness. The bouquet evolves slowly, revealing additional toasted grain complexity.
◐ Taste
Entry is sweet and full-bodied, with toffee and dark sugar forming the core palate. Ripe orchard fruit—apple and stone fruit—provides bright counterpoint to the malt sweetness. The 50 IBU bitterness integrates smoothly, preventing cloying fatigue and maintaining balance through the mid-palate into the swallow.
◑ Finish
The finish is notably long and rounded, with a faint roast character lingering on the palate. Warming alcohol persists gently, reinforcing the barleywine's structure without excessive heat.
