Txokotrip

◎ Aussehen

Deep black-brown hue with an opaque, impenetrable body. A dense tan head forms on the pour with solid retention and creates a lacy Schaumkleiden down the glass. Minimal carbonation is evident, befitting the creamy texture promised on the label.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent roasted cacao and dark chocolate notes, layered beneath warm hazelnut and toasted Malz undertones. Subtle coffee and cocoa butter aromatics emerge with time, while a faint alcohol warmth sits in the background without dominating.

◐ Geschmack

The palate delivers rich chocolate and hazelnut flavors that coat the mouth with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. A moderate bitterness from the 65 IBU sits beneath the sweetness, balancing dark fruit and coffee notes mid-palate. The 9% ABV provides warmth without harshness, allowing the roasted character and milk-forward texture to dominate.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and warming, with lingering chocolate and hazelnut notes fading gradually into a dry, roasted aftertaste. The alcohol presence becomes more apparent in the fade, adding a gentle heat that complements the overall richness.
