Longboat

◎ Appearance

Deep brown in the glass with a tan head that settles to a fine lacing. The beer presents with good clarity and moderate carbonation, the head clinging persistently to the glass walls in delicate strands.

◌ Aroma

Chocolate leads the nose with immediate presence and warmth. Subtle coffee notes emerge beneath, supported by a light nuttiness from the roasted grain bill. The addition of natural flavour introduces a soft, understated complexity without dominating the profile.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with creamy mouthfeel and dark chocolate character that persists through the mid-palate. A light, nut-roasted bitterness provides structure without harshness, while hints of dark fruit and roasted depth add richness. The sweetness remains balanced, never cloying, allowing the malt complexity to breathe.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately long, with chocolate and roasted notes lingering gently on the palate. A dry roasted edge emerges in the aftertaste without astringency.
