Dancing With The Devil

◎ Aussehen

Deep black colour with a dense, tan head that settles into a thin collar. The beer is opaque and still, displaying the hallmark density of a well-crafted stout. Carbonation is restrained, allowing the rich malt character to take centre stage.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with dark chocolate and roasted coffee beans, followed by subtle dark fruit notes and a base of dark roast malt. Bitterness is present but measured, creating a balanced aromatic profile that invites without overwhelming. No hop aromatics dominate; instead, the roasted grain and cocoa work in harmony.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and creamy, with chocolate and coffee flavours layering across the palate. Dark roast malt underpins the mid-palate, adding depth and complexity without harshness. The bitterness develops gradually, finishing with a dry, measured bite that complements rather than overwhelms the malt sweetness.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and lingering, with roasted grain and a gentle bitter edge persisting on the palate. Aftertaste remains coffee-forward without becoming astringent.
