Volcan

◎ Aussehen

Deep brown to near-black, with an opaque clarity typical of the stout style. The head forms dense and dark, settling to a thin collar with moderate lacing that clings to the glass as you drink. Carbonation appears restrained, allowing the rich color and body to dominate the visual impression.

◌ Aroma

The nose is led entirely by fresh coffee grounds and dark roast, evoking the smell of a just-opened bag of Costa Rican beans. Beneath this primary character sits dark cocoa and a subtle suggestion of caramel sweetness. A faint nutty undertone rounds out the aromatics, with no sharp or astringent edges.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with pronounced coffee and roast bitterness held in balance by lactose-derived sweetness that steers the flavor toward milk chocolate and caramel rather than harsh char. The body is full and smooth, coating the mouth without heaviness. A subtle nuttiness lingers in the mid-palate, while the roast character remains present and never bitter or acrid.

◑ Abgang

The close is long and lingering, dominated by the coffee character with a sweet, creamy backdrop. The aftertaste remains unmistakably of coffee, fading gradually without any sharp residue.

Etwas wärmer als erwartet. 10–13°C lässt die gerösteten Malz-, Schokoladen- und Kaffeenoten vollständig entfalten.

Der Klassiker — vielseitig, angenehm zu halten und hält das Bier kühl. Kein Schnickschnack: nur das Bier.
