Chocolate & Vanilla Stout

◎ Aussehen

Deep brown to black in color, with the dense opacity characteristic of a stout. The head is thick and persistent, displaying good adhesion to the glass walls. Carbonation appears moderate and well-integrated, creating a creamy visual impression.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced sweetness—vanilla and cocoa are immediately present and forward. Behind this lies a solid foundation of roasted malt aromas, including hints of dark grain and subtle charred notes. The overall balance favors the sweet adjuncts without obscuring the classic stout character underneath.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with sweetness from vanilla and chocolate, which soften the natural bitterness of roasted malts. Mid-palate brings developing chocolate notes and a gentle spice from the malt backbone, while bitterness remains restrained at 35 IBU—present but not aggressive. The low alcohol (4.5%) allows the flavors to remain light and approachable rather than warming.

◑ Abgang

The finish is relatively short, with vanilla and cocoa lingering pleasantly rather than intensely. A mild drying sensation from roasted grain closes the experience cleanly.
