Imperial Stout 11.7 º

Cerveza Caleya

This Imperial Stout presents an indulgent sensory experience, shaped by a six-hour long boil that concentrates sugars into a dense, velvety body. The profile is dominated by the integration of rich Congolese cocoa nibs and sweet vanilla, supported by the nutty presence of toasted coconut. On the palate, it functions as a liquid dessert, offering intense layers of dark chocolate, burnt caramel, and a creamy finish. The 11.7% ABV provides a smooth, integrated warmth that balances the high residual sweetness. The complexity is driven by the interaction between deep-roasted malts and luxurious adjuncts, resulting in a thick, mouth-coating, and harmonious character.

Appearance. SRM 40+. Opaque jet black. Thick, persistent deep tan to dark brown head with fine beads. High viscosity creates visible legs on the glass wall.

Aroma. High intensity. Deeply roasted malt character suggesting dark chocolate and espresso. Pronounced aromatics of Congolese cocoa nibs and sweet, floral vanilla. Toasted coconut provides a distinct nutty top note. Low dark fruit esters of raisin and plum. Clean, smooth alcohol presence without harshness.

Taste. Initial impression is richly sweet and decadent. Dominant flavors of bittersweet chocolate, fudge, and roasted cocoa. The middle palate reveals creamy coconut and a lingering vanilla bean character. Malt profile contributes toasted bread and heavy caramel from the extended boil. Bitterness is moderate but serves primarily to balance the high sweetness. The finish is long and velvety with a gentle roasted aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Full to very full-bodied; thick and chewy texture. Low carbonation enhances the creamy, liquid dessert sensation. Noticeable but smooth alcohol warmth with very low astringency.
