Mystery Romp

◎ Aussehen

Deep brown to nearly black in the glass, with substantial opacity that speaks to the beer's roasted grain bill. A dense, tan head forms and clings with persistent adhesion, settling into a fine collar at the rim. Carbonation is moderate and steady, supporting the visual weight without excessive effervescence.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with roasted coffee—a deliberate, earthy prominence from the 108-year-old Coast Roast roaster—layered beneath with toasted malt and cocoa powder. Dark fruit notes emerge softly in the background, adding subtle complexity without obscuring the coffee's starring role. The overall impression is warm and inviting, with no harsh roast burn.

◐ Geschmack

The palate is full and smooth, opening with the coffee and roasted grain character that dominates the flavor profile. Mid-palate brings chocolate richness and a measured bitterness (33 IBU) that integrates naturally rather than asserting itself aggressively. The finish carries notes of dark fruit and toasted malt without becoming thin or overly dry.

◑ Abgang

The aftertaste persists with roasted and coffee notes fading gradually into a subtle cocoa warmth. At 6.5% ABV, the alcohol presence is restrained, allowing the roasted character to define the closing impression without harshness.

Bei 10–13°C servieren. Zu kalt dämpft die Röstvielfalt, die einen guten Porter langsam trinkbar macht.

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