Baró De Savassona Negra is a robust American Stout that commands attention with its intense sensory profile. This jet-black beer presents a deep character with a persistent tan head. The aroma is dominated by high-intensity roasted notes, primarily dark chocolate and freshly roasted coffee beans. On the palate, the experience is driven by rich, bittersweet chocolate and espresso flavors, balanced by a firm hop bitterness and subtle citrusy, resinous undertones. At 7% ABV, it offers a smooth, well-integrated warmth. This medium-full bodied beer concludes with a clean, lingering roasted finish, emphasizing its bold character and the intensity sought by craft enthusiasts.
