Dirty Bastard

◎ Aussehen

Deep ruby to dark brown hue, achieved through careful selection of specialty malts including abbey and crystal varieties. The beer displays good clarity with a dense, tan head that shows solid retention and attractive lacing against the glass. Carbonation is moderate, creating a gentle sparkle that complements the full-bodied character.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced caramel and toffee notes, underpinned by the rich sweetness of toasted specialty malts. Behind these primary impressions lie subtle dried fruit aromas alongside a faint tobacco leaf character, with gentle spice rounding out the bouquet. The overall aromatic profile is warm and inviting, without aggressive hop presence.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with full malt-driven sweetness, carrying strong notes of caramel and toasted grain across the mid-palate. Nugget and Willamette hops assert a firm, measured bitterness that provides necessary balance and prevents the beer from becoming cloying. A hint of tobacco and warming spice emerges in the mid-palate, adding complexity to an otherwise straightforward malt platform.

◑ Abgang

The finish is notably long and complex, with lingering warmth from the 8.5% alcohol and a dry, slightly peppery aftertaste. The bitterness persists gently, leaving the palate with a balanced impression of both malt and hops.

Serviertemperatur 12–16°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.
