O'Reilly's Stout

◎ Aussehen

Deep black color with minimal opacity, presenting a dense and persistent head from the nitrogen pour. Fine bubbles cling to the glass walls in tight lacing, characteristic of the widget system. The body appears full and creamy despite the modest alcohol content.

◌ Aroma

Roasted barley and dark chocolate dominate the nose, with subtle coffee undertones and a light char character. The flaked barley contributes a grainy sweetness beneath the roasted notes. Hop aromatics remain restrained, allowing the Malz character to define the sensory profile.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is immediately dry and assertive, with roasted grain flavors coating the palate. The mid-palate reveals a creamy, full-bodied mouthfeel that belies the light 3.9% ABV, supported by flaked barley's smooth texture. Bitterness from Cascade and Bravo hops provides balanced structure at 40 IBU, finishing with lingering coffee and cocoa.

◑ Abgang

Clean, dry finish with moderate length. Roasted grain and subtle coffee notes linger gently on the palate without astringency.
