Plum Porter

◎ Aussehen

Deep mahogany to near-black in the glass, with excellent opacity characteristic of the style. A persistent tan head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine Schaumhaftung. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a soft visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a sumptuous declaration of dried plum and raisin, underpinned by soft toasted grain. Warming vanilla notes emerge in the mid-range, while subtle chocolate and cocoa undertones add depth without dominating. No sharp roast or coffee bite—everything sits in a rounded, fruit-forward register.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and full-bodied, with dark fruit character leading the palate—plum and prune flavors dominate the mid-range. Vanilla sweetness develops gently alongside soft malt backbone and a light chocolate note. Bitterness is restrained at 33 IBU, allowing the fruit and vanilla to remain the focus; any roasted edge stays peripheral and does not overwhelm.

◑ Abgang

The finish is medium in length, warm and slightly drying without harshness. Vanilla and raisin linger softly as bitterness fades, leaving a gentle fruitiness on the aftertaste.
