Aroma Comment on malt, hops, esters, and other aromatics

Maltes e ésteres de fermentação se combinam no aroma e aparecem de forma complexa, intensa, remetendo a frutas escuras e maduras, também damasco, ameixa, notas de tostado e chocolate. Leve amadeirado pode ser sentido ao esquentar da cerveja.

Appearance Comment on color, clarity, and head (retention, color, and texture)

Cerveja cobre escuro, opaca, de colarinho bege, de finas bolhas e média formação e alta retenção.

Flavor Comment on malt, hops, fermentation characteristics, balance, finish/aftertaste, and other flavor characteristics

Mix de malte e ésteres que expressam sabores similares ao aroma. Sabor no geral muito adocicado para o estilo, intenso, remetendo a ameixa e frutas escuras, as vezes com notas de bananada bem açucarada. Amargor baixo e limpo. Equilíbrio voltado para o malte com retrogosto bem maltado e adocicado.

Mouthfeel Comment on body, carbonation, warmth, creaminess, astringency, and other palate sensations

Corpo médio-alto, carbonatação moderada, calor alcoólico bem evidente, uma leve adstringência a cada gole.

Overall Impression Comment on overall drinking pleasure associated with entry, give suggestions for improvement

Cerveja focada em maltes escuros e ésteres de fermentação que remetem a frutas escuras, frutado complexo e em alta intensidade. Calor alcoólico, assim como a adstringência, atrapalha um pouco a degustação. Esterificação frutada harmoniza bem com grist de malte, entretanto o adocicado final pode tornar a degustação enjoativa.
