Brouwerij de Molen

Brouwerij de Molen Eisbok & Poot is a decadent and profoundly concentrated Eisbock, offering a sensory journey through layers of dark complexity. The aroma is dominated by intense baker's chocolate and toasted almond, underpinned by the rich, bready essence of specialty malts. On the palate, a syrupy, full-bodied texture delivers deep flavors of ripe red fruits, such as plums and cherries, alongside a persistent almond character. The experience concludes with a silky finish where lingering dark chocolate meets a smooth, well-integrated alcohol warmth, providing a drying balance to the substantial malt sweetness in this masterful strong lager.

Appearance. Deep mahogany to dark brown (28 SRM) with brilliant ruby highlights. The pour produces a thin, ivory-colored head with minimal retention, leaving pronounced legs on the glass indicative of high alcohol and viscosity.

Aroma. High intensity aroma featuring a rich, toasted malt base with prominent notes of dark chocolate and marzipan-like almond. Substantial dark fruit esters of plum and raisin are present, supported by a clean fermentation profile and a smooth, vinous alcohol presence without solvent notes.

Taste. Initial impression is rich, sweet malt with flavors of toasted bread crust and caramel. Significant presence of dark chocolate and almond provides mid-palate complexity alongside ripe red fruit. Hop bitterness is low, providing just enough balance to prevent a cloying character. The finish is long and malty with a silky texture and a distinct, warming alcohol dryness.

Mouthfeel. Very full-bodied and viscous with a syrupy, mouth-coating texture. Carbonation is low. Significant alcohol warmth is present but remains smooth and well-integrated, contributing to a silky, creamy feel without astringency.
