Marble Imperial Stout

◎ Aussehen

Deep opaque black with a thin tan head that settles into a delicate collar around the rim. The beer displays excellent clarity for the style, with minimal suspended matter. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, creating a dense, glossy appearance that befits its full body.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with roasted malt and dark chocolate, followed by espresso and black coffee notes that sit at the forefront. Underlying layers of molasses and subtle dark fruit emerge on closer inspection. The alcohol warmth is present but restrained, not sharp or solvent-like.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is rich and full-bodied, with roasted grain and chocolate flavors dominating from entry through mid-palate. Coffee bitterness and a slight dark-fruit character provide complexity and balance. The alcohol (11%) contributes warmth and body without harshness, while a light dryness in the finish prevents cloying sweetness.

◑ Abgang

A long, warming finish with lingering chocolate and roasted notes. The aftertaste is dry and slightly astringent, with fading coffee impressions.

Etwas wärmer als erwartet. 10–13°C lässt die gerösteten Malz-, Schokoladen- und Kaffeenoten vollständig entfalten.

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