The Magician

◎ Aussehen

The Magician presents a lustrous dark red hue, clear and well-defined in the glass. A modest cream-colored head settles quickly but leaves gentle lacing on the sides. Carbonation appears moderate, with fine bubbles rising steadily through the body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with toasted caramel and roasted malt character, followed by subtle notes of dark fruit and chocolate. Light hop presence adds a gentle spice backdrop, but the malt-forward profile dominates entirely. There is no aggressive or pungent quality; the aromas remain composed and inviting.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is smooth and full-bodied, with caramel sweetness and roasted toffee forming the core flavor. Mid-palate deepens into chocolate and raisin notes, while restrained bitterness (15 IBU) keeps the profile balanced without demanding attention. The malt carries the entire experience, with hops serving only as a gentle frame.

◑ Abgang

The finish is moderate in length, lingering with warm toasted malt and a whisper of cocoa. Aftertaste remains clean and slightly sweet, without harshness or excessive dryness.
