Cerveza Chutney

Albert Spaggiari by Cerveza Chutney is a robust American Stout that pours with a profound darkness and a velvety presence. The foundational Pale Ale malt provides a sturdy, grainy backbone, allowing the roasted depth of Chocolate malt to shine through with notes of bittersweet cocoa and espresso. Interwoven layers of Crystal malt add a subtle caramel sweetness that rounds out the palate and balances the firm bitterness provided by Magnum hops. The addition of Challenger hops contributes a nuanced earthy and herbal hop character, maintaining the style’s assertive profile. It concludes with a satisfying, lingering roasted finish that defines this expressive, well-balanced dark ale.

Appearance. Jet black and opaque (35-40 SRM). Topped with a large, persistent light tan head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity of roasted coffee and dark chocolate from the Chocolate malt. Subtle caramel sweetness follows. Low to moderate hop aroma with earthy and slightly herbal notes from Challenger hops. Clean fermentation profile with very low esters.

Taste. Initial impression is dominated by bittersweet chocolate and roasted grain. Malt flavors of espresso and light toffee from the Crystal malt are present. Medium-high bitterness from Magnum hops provides a firm counterpoint to the malt. Hop flavors are earthy and spicy. The finish is medium-dry with a lingering roasted quality and a clean, bitter aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a somewhat creamy texture. Moderate to medium-high carbonation. Light, smooth alcohol warmth appropriate for its strength. Low roast-derived astringency that is not acrid.
