4-Granen Bok

◎ Aussehen

Deep amber to brown, with a color clarity reflecting the roasted rye and dark malts in the grist. A dense, persistent head forms with good retention and fine lacing, while moderate carbonation sustains an inviting visual structure throughout service.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced roasted grain and dark chocolate, layered beneath ripe red fruit notes—plum and cherry—that emerge as the beer warms. A subtle wheaten softness supports the darker roasted character without dominating, and the top-fermented yeast adds an earthy, slightly spiced undertone.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and malty, with immediate roasted and chocolate notes building quickly on the palate. Mid-palate brings dark fruit—currant and dried cherry—while a burnt, astringent bitterness develops steadily, recalling cocoa solids and toasted grain. At 30 IBU, the bitterness is firm and integrated rather than sharp, finishing with a dry, slightly warming character that reflects the 6.5% ABV.

◑ Abgang

The finish is moderately long and dry, with lingering roasted notes and a subtle cocoa bitterness that persists into the aftertaste. A gentle warmth from the alcohol remains without becoming prominent.
