Midnight Stout

◎ Aussehen

Deep black with a rich brown tint at the edges when held to light. A dense, creamy head forms from the nitrogen pour, clinging persistently to the glass walls with fine, uniform lacework. The body is opaque and still, with no visible carbonation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with roasted grain and dark chocolate, supported by a subtle coffee undertone that suggests espresso rather than bright acidity. A faint suggestion of dark fruit—plum or raisin—emerges beneath, while the overall impression remains dry and grain-forward without sweetness or fruit dominance.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and velvety, with roasted malt and cocoa flavors building immediately across the mid-palate. Bitterness arrives late and measured, balancing the richness without assertiveness. The finish lingers gently with chocolate and a whisper of coffee, the dry character preventing any heaviness despite the full body.

◑ Abgang

A clean, moderately long finish with lingering roasted and chocolate notes. The aftertaste remains dry, allowing the malt character to fade gracefully without residual sweetness or astringency.
