Profil de dégustation

The nose opens with assertive bourbon-soaked oak, dark chocolate shavings, and espresso grounds, layered with vanilla extract and toasted coconut. Caramelized brown sugar and dried cherry notes emerge as it warms. The palate is luxuriously viscous, delivering waves of fudge brownie, roasted coffee, and bourbon-barrel char. Maple syrup sweetness balances roasted malt bitterness, while dark fruit undertones add complexity. The finish is prolonged and warming, with lingering dark chocolate, charred oak tannins, and a gentle bourbon heat that gradually fades to reveal subtle tobacco and molasses notes.

Accords avec les aliments

Pair with a rich chocolate lava cake or dark chocolate tart—the beer’s roasted malt character and barrel-aged complexity complement intense cocoa flavors while the bourbon notes echo baking spices. Alternatively, serve alongside aged Stilton or Roquefort; the beer’s sweetness counterbalances pungent blue cheese funk, while shared nutty and caramelized elements create harmonious richness.
