Kelpie Seaweed Ale

◎ Aussehen

Deep amber to dark brown with a translucent body and modest carbonation. A thick, creamy head forms and clings to the glass with good persistence, leaving fine Schaumkleiden down the sides. The color speaks to the presence of chocolate malt and roasted grain.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced roasted malt and dark chocolate notes, underscored by earthy and mineral minerality from the seaweed. A subtle herbal quality emerges alongside hints of dark fruit—dried plum and raisin. The overall impression is grounded and maritime, with no sharp edges or aggressive hop character.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is full and malty with a clear roasted character that builds through the mid-palate. Chocolate and toasted grain flavors sit front and center, while a delicate saltiness—the signature of the bladderwrack—arrives as a gentle textural note rather than a briny punch. Bitterness is restrained at 28 IBU, allowing the malt sweetness and herbal complexity to persist without becoming cloying.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and lingering, with roasted notes and a faint maritime minerality fading gradually. A light dryness emerges without harshness, leaving behind a memory of toasted grain and herbal earth.

Serviertemperatur 6–9°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.

Der Klassiker — vielseitig, angenehm zu halten und hält das Bier kühl. Kein Schnickschnack: nur das Bier.
