Porter 5.3 º 38 IBU

Cervesa Barra

Barra Exprés is an approachable English Porter that highlights a smooth, roast-forward profile. It presents a sophisticated interplay between traditional British malt character and fair trade coffee. The experience is defined by a bouquet of freshly ground beans, toasted biscuit, and milk chocolate. The palate follows with a gentle, coffee-infused bitterness that avoids harshness, supported by a backbone of caramel and nutty sweetness. Its medium-light body ensures high drinkability, leading to a clean, slightly dry finish. This porter balances the comforting warmth of a roasted brew with the structured elegance of a classic dark ale, resulting in an exceptionally smooth character.

Appearance. Deep brown to mahogany in color with brilliant ruby highlights. It supports a persistent, frothy, light tan head with moderate retention and delicate lacing.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Pronounced notes of freshly roasted coffee dominate, well-integrated with underlying aromas of toasted bread, dark chocolate, and subtle caramel. Low earthy hop notes and a hint of dark fruit esters provide additional complexity.

Taste. The initial impression is soft and coffee-forward. Mid-palate flavors reveal layers of biscuit, toasted nuts, and cocoa. A medium-low bitterness from both hops and roasted coffee provides balance without being acrid or burnt. The finish is smooth and moderately dry, lingering with a pleasant chocolatey aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate, providing a gentle lift that prevents the roasted character from feeling heavy. No noticeable alcohol warmth.
