Antares Cuatro/Tres captures the spirit of a Mar del Plata winter with its deep copper hue and robust malt architecture. Drawing from a foundation of Munich and Vienna style malts, the sensory profile is defined by toasted bread crusts and dark fruit leather, with just a whisper of herbal hops for balance. The palate is intensely malty and silky, offering layers of Maillard-driven complexity and a gentle sweetness that remains well-balanced. At 7.7% ABV, this Doppelbock provides a comforting, well-integrated warmth, serving as a liquid wetsuit that rounds out its bold character with a smooth, clean lager finish.
Appearance.Copper to deep amber with brilliant clarity; features a large, creamy, and persistent off-white head with excellent lacing.
Aroma.High intensity of rich, toasted malt and Maillard products. Notes of bread crust and light caramel dominate, accompanied by moderate dark fruit esters resembling plum or fruit leather. Hop aroma is virtually absent, and a clean fermentation profile is punctuated by a subtle, pleasant alcohol presence.
Taste.Initial impression is very rich and malty-sweet. Flavors of toasted bread and dark grain skins are prominent. Hop bitterness is moderately low, providing just enough structure to round out the malt dominance without becoming assertive. The finish is smooth and clean, showing good attenuation for the style, with a lingering toasted malt aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full to full body with a distinctive silky, creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate to moderately low. A smooth, gentle alcohol warmth is present but never harsh or fusel, contributing to a cozy, warming sensation.
