Postman's Plum Porter

◎ Aussehen

Deep brown to nearly black in the glass, with a red-brown translucence at the edges when held to light. A dense, tan head forms and holds with fine Schaumkleiden down the sides of the glass. The body carries moderate carbonation evident in a gentle, persistent stream of bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with ripe plum and damson fruit notes, layered beneath aromas of pale chocolate and roasted grain. Goldings and Fuggles hops contribute subtle berry undertones and a whisper of noble spice. Sweet roasted malt forms the foundation, with hints of dark caramel developing as the beer warms.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with treacly sweetness and roasted malt character, building into a full-bodied middle where plum flesh, cocoa, and a gentle spice note converge. Bitterness from the Edelhopfen remains restrained at 33 IBU, allowing the malt and fruit to lead. The finish transitions smoothly into chocolate and a fading berry note.

◑ Abgang

The finish is smooth and lingering, with chocolate and dark malt providing a soft, warming conclusion. A subtle spice and faint fruit dryness persist in the aftertaste without any harsh edges.
