Heartbreak presents as an inviting Coffee Stout, defined by its seamless integration of roasted grain and fresh cold brew. The infusion of Bad Hand coffee provides a dominant yet refined aroma of freshly ground beans and dark cocoa. On the palate, the bittersweet profile balances deep-seated flavors of baker's chocolate and toasted malts with the smooth, low-acid brightness characteristic of a cold extraction. A subtle earthy hop presence lingers in the background, allowing the rich coffee character to remain the centerpiece. The finish is remarkably smooth and complex, leaving a clean, lingering roasted resonance without any acrid harshness.
Appearance.Jet black and opaque (SRM 40+); features a thick, creamy, tan head with excellent retention and persistent lacing.
Aroma.High intensity aroma of fresh roasted coffee and dark chocolate; secondary notes of toasted bread and faint molasses from the malt; hop aroma is low to none, allowing the coffee to dominate.
Taste.Initial impression is of rich, nutty coffee followed by bittersweet dark chocolate; moderate roasted malt bitterness is well-balanced by a light residual sweetness; hop flavor is low and earthy; the finish is smooth and clean with lingering coffee notes.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a silky, creamy texture likely enhanced by the cold brew infusion; moderate carbonation; very low alcohol warmth; no astringency.
