Black Sheep Ale

◎ Aussehen

Black Sheep Ale presents a rich dark mahogany to deep brown color characteristic of traditional English brown ales. The beer displays excellent clarity with a modest but persistent tan head that demonstrates good retention and fine carbonation. The visual presentation is inviting and quintessentially British.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by warm caramel and toasted malt notes with a subtle nuttiness that adds complexity. Light chocolate undertones blend seamlessly with earthy, herbal hop character, while gentle fruity esters provide a soft, approachable bouquet. The overall aromatic profile is balanced and restrained, typical of well-crafted English ales.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with rich caramel sweetness and roasted malt character, followed by a mid-palate that showcases chocolate and toasted grain complexity. A subtle earthiness and modest hop bitterness (25 IBUs) provide excellent balance without overwhelming the malty foundation. The flavor profile is smooth and approachable with lingering nutty notes.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and moderately dry with a pleasant fade of caramel and subtle roasted notes. The aftertaste is not aggressive, allowing the malty sweetness to gently diminish with a touch of earthiness.

Serviertemperatur 10–13°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.
