Luscious

◎ Aussehen

Deep garnet-black in color with a dense, tan head that clings to the glass with fine Schaumhaftung. The beer presents opaque, impenetrable clarity typical of the style. Carbonation is restrained, supporting a viscous, syrupy presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced roasted malt character—dark chocolate, cocoa powder, and charred grain dominate. Beneath lies a dried fruit complexity: raisin, plum, and fig notes emerge on closer inspection. Subtle warmth from the 9.2% ABV threads through without harshness.

◐ Geschmack

Full-bodied and rich on entry, with roasted malt providing the structural backbone. Mid-palate develops layers of dark chocolate, coffee, and stone fruit, balanced by moderate bitterness (65 IBU) that never overwhelms. The alcohol integrates smoothly, lending depth without burning.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and warming, with lingering roasted character and gentle coffee notes fading slowly. A subtle dryness emerges as the alcohol warmth settles.
