Extra Black

◎ Aussehen

Extra Black presents a deep black pour with excellent clarity despite being unfiltered and unfined. The nitrogen carbonation produces a dense, creamy head that adheres persistently to the glass, creating fine lacing as the beer is consumed. The tight collar of foam and steady carbonation contribute to a polished, elegant presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced roasted malt character and clear espresso notes that dominate the aromatic profile. Beneath the coffee-forward impression lies a subtle undercurrent of cocoa and a whisper of woodsmoke, adding complexity without assertiveness. The aroma remains restrained and focused, allowing each element to emerge clearly.

◐ Geschmack

On the palate, cold-press coffee and milk chocolate form the core of the flavor experience, with the chocolate providing a gentle sweetness that balances the coffee's slight acerbity. A faint smoky character threads through the mid-palate, adding depth and dimension. The bitterness arrives gently on the finish, clean and measured, leaving no harsh edges.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and relatively short, with the mild bitterness receding gracefully. A lingering impression of cocoa and roasted grain remains, inviting another sip without fatigue.
