Boudicca

◎ Aussehen

Deep brown to near-black in the glass, with opaque clarity characteristic of the Porter style. A dense, tan head forms and clings to the rim with good retention. Fine carbonation creates gentle beading beneath the surface.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with dark chocolate and caramel sweetness, underpinned by toasted grain. Floral notes from the Boadicea hops emerge subtly beneath the malt, while gentle spice adds complexity without dominating the profile.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is rich and malty, with pronounced chocolate and caramel notes that coat the palate. Mid-palate reveals spiced warmth and dark roasted tones, while crisp bitterness from the hops cuts cleanly through the sweetness. The balance favors malt, though the bittering remains present and structured throughout.

◑ Abgang

The finish is smooth and drying, with lingering chocolate and caramel notes fading into a subtle bitter edge. Aftertaste remains malty and warm without excessive astringency.
