Brouwerij Kees Anniversary #03
This celebratory English Porter offers a robust and elevated interpretation of the traditional style, showcasing an 8% ABV that adds depth and presence. The sensory profile is defined by a rich foundation of toasted biscuit and nutty malt, layered with decadent notes of milk chocolate and smooth caramel. Earthy hop accents provide a subtle, grounding bitterness that balances the inherent malt sweetness. As a higher-gravity version, it displays a velvety texture and a gentle alcohol warmth that enhances the dark fruit esters. The finish is smooth and lingering, emphasizing roasted chocolate complexity without any burnt harshness.
Appearance. Dark brown with deep ruby highlights and good clarity. It features a moderate, creamy, light tan head with fair retention and delicate lacing on the glass.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity of chocolate and toasty malt with bready and nutty undertones. Subtle caramel and toffee sweetness are present, complemented by low earthy hops and moderate plum-like fruity esters.
Taste. Leading with bready and toasty malt, the flavor transitions into layers of milk chocolate and mild coffee roastiness. A significant caramel and toffee character provides sweetness, balanced by medium-low bitterness and earthy hop notes. The finish is slightly sweet with lingering chocolate and soft fruity esters.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a creamy and smooth texture. Carbonation is moderate, and there is a noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth that provides a satisfying weight.
