Barre Edition No. 11 Monroe

◎ Appearance

Dark amber with a pronounced red sheen, presenting a clear, bright body beneath a cream-coloured head. The foam settles to a thin, persistent collar with fine lacing on the glass. Carbonation is moderate and even, contributing to a composed, elegant presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with fine forest honey and gentle malty depth, characteristic of the Märzen style. Monroe hops add a delicate red fruit character with subtle cherry undertones. The bouquet is restrained and balanced, inviting rather than assertive, with no sharp edges.

◐ Taste

Entry is mild and approachable, allowing the Märzen's malt foundation to establish itself before developing into red fruit notes mirroring the aroma. The mid-palate is full and elegant with a soft, lingering sweetness balanced by the modest 22 IBU bitterness. Finish is clean and moderately dry, with the fruit character persisting gently into the aftertaste.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium in length with a soft, grainy sweetness fading to a light, dry aftertaste. No harsh edges or warming alcohol character intrude on the composed conclusion.
