177 Strong Ale

◎ Aussehen

Dark red-brown body with substantial depth, suggesting rich malt character and moderate caramelization. Head retention is generous, with stable lacing that clings to the glass. The beer presents clear, clean clarity without haze, allowing the depth of color to shine through.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with layered caramel and toffee, grounded by dark malt backbone. Beneath the sweetness, fruity esters—dried plum, raisin, and subtle stone fruit—emerge alongside gentle spice notes that prevent the profile from becoming one-dimensional. The alcohol warmth is present but restrained, integrated rather than aggressive.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is full and malty, with rich caramel sweetness that avoids thinness or cloying character. The mid-palate develops layered complexity: dark fruit flavors interweave with warming spice, while the substantial body carries alcohol warmth that feels natural rather than sharp. Bitterness is restrained, allowing malt and ester character to dominate the palate arc.

◑ Abgang

The finish is long and warming, with alcohol presence felt as gentle heat rather than harshness. Residual caramel and dark fruit notes linger into the aftertaste, creating a satisfying, substantive close.

Serviertemperatur 12–16°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.
