The Dissident

◎ Aussehen

The Dissident pours a deep reddish-brown, displaying the characteristic color of a well-aged Oud Bruin. The clarity is good, allowing the rich hue to shine through. A modest tan head settles quickly, leaving fine lacing that clings to the glass in delicate trails.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with tart cherry and dark stone fruit, grounded by caramel-like malt sweetness and a vinous oak character that speaks to extended barrel aging. A light funky edge—characteristic of wild fermentation—weaves through without dominating, adding complexity and a subtle farmhouse quality.

◐ Geschmack

Bright acidity cuts through the palate immediately, balancing the malt's restrained sweetness and oak's subtle vanilla-wood notes. The cherry character carries through the mid-palate with good presence, while a gentle funkiness adds depth without harshness. The body remains medium and elegant, never heavy despite the 9.8% ABV.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and tangy, with the acidity lingering cleanly on the palate. The aftertaste leans toward tart fruit and subtle oak, fading gracefully without bitterness.
