Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Moo-Hoo

◎ Appearance

Deep brown to nearly black, with opaque clarity and a dense, persistent tan head that clings to the glass in thick bands. Carbonation is moderate, lending a soft visual texture to the beer. The head retention is excellent, typical of a well-crafted milk stout.

◌ Aroma

Cocoa dominates the nose, with distinct aromas of dark chocolate and cocoa nibs leading the profile. Roasted malt undertones emerge beneath, along with subtle notes of coffee and a gentle impression of dark stone fruits. The overall bouquet is rich and inviting without sharp alcohol vapor.

◐ Taste

Chocolate flavors drive the palate from entry through mid-palate, supported by a creamy, full body from the lactose sweetener. Roasted grain and coffee notes surface alongside, while the bittering hops (25 IBU) provide gentle, measured restraint rather than assertiveness. The finish remains smooth and predominantly sweet-forward.

◑ Finish

The finish is sustained and warming, with lingering chocolate and a subtle coffee note fading gradually. Aftertaste remains clean and malty without astringency.

Serve at 10–14°C

Slightly warmer than you might expect. 10–13°C lets the roasted malt, chocolate and coffee notes open up fully.

Pint glass

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink within a year. Standard stouts are best fresh but hold reasonably well for 6–12 months.
