Amundsen Brewery Donut Series 2.0 - Raspberry Jam Donut W/ Neapolitan Sprinkles
Stout 6.5 º
This indulgent Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer evokes a pastry-shop experience, centered on the nostalgic profile of a raspberry jam donut. High-intensity aromas of fresh raspberry jam dominate the nose, layered with the distinct 'trifecta' of Neapolitan sprinkles: strawberry, creamy vanilla, and rich chocolate. The palate follows suit, offering a complex confectionery interplay where the tartness of the raspberry balances a sweet, doughy malt base. The finish is remarkably smooth, with the fruit acidity providing a refreshing counterpoint to the dessert-like sweetness. It is a thick, velvety tribute to its culinary inspiration, prioritizing vibrant fruit and cocoa over hop character.
Appearance. Pours a deep, opaque ruby red with a dense, pink-tinted tan head that shows moderate retention and fine-beaded lacing.
Aroma. High intensity; dominant fresh raspberry jam and ripe strawberry notes are complemented by sweet vanilla bean and subtle milk chocolate. Malt is bready and cake-like; hop aroma is absent.
Taste. Initial sweet impression of raspberry preserves and strawberry glaze. The mid-palate reveals creamy vanilla and a soft cocoa presence, mimicking Neapolitan ice cream. The malt provides a sweet, pastry-like foundation with very low bitterness. The finish is clean and mildly tart, preventing the residual sugars from becoming cloying.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full to full body with a thick, smooth, and creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate. Alcohol warmth is very low and well-integrated; no perceptible astringency.
