Another Planet The Dark Side
This Imperial-strength take on an American Porter offers a deep, indulgent sensory experience. Intense aromas of dark chocolate and vanilla are lifted by surprising notes of honey and banana, creating a complex bouquet. The palate is dominated by bold layers of licorice and espresso, supported by a sturdy malt backbone. At 9% ABV, the beer provides a noticeable but well-integrated warmth that enhances the velvety, medium-full body. Despite its dark character, the finish remains balanced, transitioning from chocolatey sweetness to a clean, roasted coffee dryness. It is a robust, rich interpretation of the style that emphasizes malt complexity and smooth fermentation esters.
Appearance. Very dark brown to black (35-40 SRM) with distinctive translucent ruby highlights when held to the light. The beer is topped with a dense, brown head showing moderate retention. Clarity is clear but nearly opaque due to depth of color.
Aroma. High intensity. A complex aromatic profile featuring rich chocolate and espresso-like coffee roast. Distinctive vanilla and sweet honey notes meld with a pungent licorice character. Noticeable fermentation esters of banana complement the dark malt depth. The roast is smooth, avoiding acrid or burnt edges.
Taste. Initial impression is of decadent bittersweet chocolate and creamy vanilla. The mid-palate is dominated by intense licorice and roasted malt flavors. Bitterness is firm but balanced by the malt density. The finish is long and lingering with a roasted coffee-like dryness that tempers the residual sweetness. Fermentation character provides a slight dark fruit undertone without an acidic bite.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is light, enhancing the beer's weight on the tongue. A significant, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present. Minimal astringency from the dark malts despite the intensity of the roast.
