Barbãr Rouge

◎ Aussehen

Barbãr Rouge presents a deep ruby to garnet hue with a subtle purple undertone, poured beneath a thin, delicate head. The beer displays good clarity with fine carbonation creating a gentle stream of bubbles. Head retention is modest, leaving minimal lacing on the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a pronounced cherry character, dark and slightly tart, supported by a warm honey sweetness that underpins the entire profile. Layers of spice—clove and pepper—emerge alongside subtle herbal notes and a malty base that grounds the composition without dominating.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and honeyed, with dark fruit notes of cherry and plum woven through a gently spiced mid-palate. The Malz provides a soft backbone, while herbal complexity adds gentle bitterness and a whisper of astringency that prevents the sweetness from cloying. Bitterness remains restrained and well-integrated throughout.

◑ Abgang

The finish is moderately long, drying toward a subtle peppery warmth and fading cherry notes. A light herbal dryness lingers in the aftertaste without becoming harsh.
