Ebb and Flow

◎ Aussehen

Deep brown to black, opaque with a tan head that clings persistently to the glass. The body is full and dense, characteristic of the style, with fine carbonation evident in steady streams.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bittersweet chocolate and subtle roasted grain, kept deliberately restrained rather than charred. Centennial and Simcoe hops bring a resinous, herbal edge with pine and citrus undertones that lift the profile above typical stout conventions.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and soft on the palate, thanks to oat additions that round the mouthfeel. Mid-palate develops cocoa and a hoppy bitterness that feels integrated rather than aggressive, finishing with a dry, gently lingering bite from the 45 IBU.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and clean, with a restrained bitter edge that fades gradually. No residual sweetness lingers; the absence of lactose or adjuncts keeps the aftertaste lean and refreshing.
