Superstition Breakfast Stout

◎ Aussehen

Deep opaque black with a dense, tan foam that clings to the glass in generous rings as you drink. The body is impenetrably dark, revealing no light even when held to a bright source. Head retention is excellent, forming a durable collar that persists through the pour.

◌ Aroma

Roasted coffee and cocoa nibs dominate the nose, speaking to both the locally sourced coffee and the chocolate character built into the grain bill. Dark roasted malt rounds out the foundation, with subtle notes of dark fruit—plum and raisin—emerging beneath. The overall impression is rich and toasted, without harsh burnt edges.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with pronounced roasted coffee and dark chocolate depth, supported by the soft, oatmeal-derived body that prevents any astringency. Mid-palate shows layered complexity: cocoa butter smoothness, hints of dark fruit sweetness, and a measured bitterness (35 IBU) that arrives late rather than early. The 8% ABV provides gentle warmth without aggressive alcohol burn.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and lingering, with coffee bitterness and dark chocolate notes persisting on the palate. A pleasant warmth fades gradually, leaving the mouth with residual cocoa and roasted grain impressions.

Etwas wärmer als erwartet. 10–13°C lässt die gerösteten Malz-, Schokoladen- und Kaffeenoten vollständig entfalten.

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