India Imperial Porter

◎ Aussehen

Deep black in color with excellent clarity, this Imperial Porter presents a dense, creamy head built by nitrogen infusion that clings persistently to the glass in fine lacing. The carbonation is gentle and refined, creating a silky visual impression befitting the beer's structure.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced herbal and floral notes layered over a resinous hop character from Citra, Simcoe, and Ekuanot. Beneath this bright aromatics sits a warm base of cocoa, dark chocolate, and liquorice, with subtle roasted malt undertones that ground the composition without dominating.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and full-bodied, delivering chocolate and roasted grain immediately, followed by an assertive but balanced hop bitterness at mid-palate. The eight-malt bill, including English Crystal and Chocolate varieties, adds depth and silkiness while restraining any astringency; resinous and herbal notes persist throughout the body.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and sustained, with hop-derived resinous character lingering cleanly against a fading chocolate note. The nitrogen conditioning leaves a refined, creamy sensation that extends the aftertaste without heaviness.
