St. Fatty’s

◎ Aussehen

St. Fatty's presents a deep amber to copper hue, characteristic of the Irish Red style. The beer displays good clarity with a dense, cream-colored head that shows persistent lacing. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a stable foam collar that clings to the glass throughout the tasting.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with prominent caramel and toffee notes, followed by subtle chocolate and toasted grain aromas that suggest time spent with Crystal malts and roasted character. Herbal hop notes from Magnum and Sterling hops provide a restrained, complementary backdrop without dominating the malt-forward profile.

◐ Geschmack

The palate delivers a smooth, malty entry dominated by caramel and subtle chocolate notes. The mid-palate develops a firm malt backbone with toasted grain complexity that carries weight without heaviness. Bitterness remains gentle at 23 IBU, allowing the sweet malt character to remain the focus through a clean, slightly dry finish.

◑ Abgang

The finish trails with lingering sweetness and a gentle malt dryness that fades without astringency. A pleasant warming sensation from the 4.8% ABV lingers briefly before the beer settles into a clean, food-friendly conclusion.
