Brasserie Zythologist Chandeleur
Stout 9 º
Brasserie Zythologist Chandeleur is a decadent American Stout that reimagines the style through a pastry-inspired lens. Poured jet black, it immediately releases an intense bouquet of rich maple syrup and toasted pecan nuts, underpinned by the comforting, doughy aroma of fresh pancakes. At 9% ABV, the palate is greeted by a robust roasted malt backbone featuring dark chocolate and charred coffee notes, seamlessly integrated with the sweet, woody character of maple. The nutty pecan influence adds a layer of earthy complexity, while the finish balances lingering sweetness with a firm, resiny bitterness typical of the style.
Appearance. Jet black color (SRM 40+) and opaque. It features a thick, persistent head of deep tan foam that leaves substantial lacing on the glass.
Aroma. High intensity roast aroma of dark chocolate and roasted coffee beans, layered with the sweet, woody scent of maple syrup and earthy pecan nuts. Subtle doughy, buttery esters evoke pancakes, while very low resiny hop notes provide a faint background. A smooth alcohol warmth is present.
Taste. Initial impression is a surge of bittersweet chocolate and maple sweetness. The middle palate reveals rich, bready pancake flavors and a distinct toasted nuttiness from pecans. A medium-high bitterness from roasted grains and hops provides balance. The finish is long and complex, transitioning from syrupy sweetness to a dry, lightly burnt roast character.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and notably creamy with a luxurious, velvety texture. Carbonation is moderate-high. A smooth, well-integrated alcohol warmth is noticeable but lacks any harshness.
