Bundgarn

◎ Aussehen

Bundgarn presents as a deep coal-black pour with minimal light penetration. The dense, tan head settles to a thin collar with moderate lacing retention on the glass. Carbonation is restrained, appropriate to the porter style.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced roasted malt and smoldering wood smoke, grounded by subtle English hop spice. Black licorice emerges as a distinctive supporting note, while hints of coffee bean and dark chocolate add layered complexity. The overall impression is earthy and malt-driven.

◐ Geschmack

Entry displays a rich, roasted malt body with smooth licorice sweetness balancing the moderate bitterness. Mid-palate shows layered flavors of coffee and dark chocolate, while the smoke persists without overwhelming. The 33 IBU provides structure without harshness, letting the darker grains and adjuncts speak clearly.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and lingering, with residual smoke and coffee notes fading gradually. No harsh tannins or astringency—the aftertaste remains clean and malt-focused.
