Brewmaster Irish Imperial Stout

◎ Aussehen

Deep black in colour with a dense, creamy head that exhibits excellent retention and lacing. The body is opaque and full, characteristic of the style, with minimal light penetration. Fine carbonation supports a persistent foam collar that clings to the glass walls.

◌ Aroma

The nose presents a rich malty foundation built from eight grain varieties, with prominent chocolate and vanilla notes layered throughout. A subtle coffee character emerges beneath, adding depth without dominating the bouquet. Oats and wheat contribute a soft, cereal undertone that completes the aromatic profile.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with a full, well-integrated malt sweetness that belies the 8% alcohol content. Mid-palate reveals the fusion of coffee and chocolate into a dark mocha character, with the grain bill providing body and subtle cereal notes. Bitterness at 65 IBU arrives moderately to balance the sweetness without overshadowing the complex malt layers.

◑ Abgang

The finish is warm and moderately long, with the mocha character persisting into the aftertaste. Residual sweetness and chocolate notes linger gently without becoming cloying.
