Coppertail Unholy

◎ Aussehen

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright, clean presentation. A thick, dense head forms on the pour and clings persistently to the glass walls, leaving distinct lacing with each sip. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a fine bead that sustains throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose is immediately fruity, dominated by pear and banana esters characteristic of Belgian yeast fermentation. Spicy phenolic notes emerge alongside subtle floral undertones, with a clean, slightly peppery quality that prevents the aromatics from becoming cloying. The malt backbone remains restrained, allowing the yeast-derived character to lead.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and warming, with immediate fruity sweetness balanced by a gentle spice mid-palate. The Belgian candi sugar contributes a light honeyed quality without heaviness, while peach notes emerge alongside the foundational banana and pear. Bitterness remains restrained at 30 IBU, serving primarily to frame the fruit and spice rather than dominate.

◑ Abgang

The finish is deceptively dry for its ABV, with residual warmth that avoids any alcohol bite. A subtle peach and spice echo persists cleanly on the aftertaste, fading to a light, refreshing dryness.

Bei 10–13°C im Kelchglas servieren. Der Hefecharakter und die Kohlensäure sind die Stars — Kälte würde beides unterdrücken.

Das breite Mundstück und der schwere Fuß fördern die Schaumbildung und leiten reiche Aromatik zur Nase. Traditionell für belgische Starkbiere.
