Stout 9 º

Brouwerij Van den Bossche

Buffalo Belgian Stout offers a powerful sensory experience that bridges the gap between traditional Belgian depth and the assertive profile of an American Stout. It pours a deep, opaque dark brown, nearly black, crowned by a dense, creamy beige head. The aroma is defined by intense notes of dark chocolate and heavily roasted coffee beans. On the palate, an initial wave of chocolate sweetness is balanced by robust roasted flavors and a firm hop bitterness. The finish is remarkably dry and lingering. At 9% alcohol, the medium-full body is complemented by a smooth, sophisticated warmth that enhances its complex character.

Appearance. Opaque, dark brown to jet black (SRM 38-40); features a large, persistent, and creamy beige to light tan head with excellent lacing.

Aroma. High intensity roast-forward aroma characterized by bittersweet chocolate and freshly roasted coffee. Subtle resinous hop notes and moderate fruity esters are present, accompanied by a light, clean alcohol presence.

Taste. Initial impression is rich and sweet with prominent flavors of dark chocolate and roasted coffee beans. This sweetness is quickly countered by a medium-high hop bitterness and roasted grain character. The finish is notably dry and lingering, with a clean, slightly bitter aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a creamy, smooth texture. Carbonation is moderate-high. Provides a noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth without being hot or fusel.
