Porter 5 º 22 IBU

Dundulis

Labas Vakaras is a refined English Porter that balances traditional roasted complexity with a sessionable 5% ABV. The sensory journey begins with a delicate interplay of roasted malts, evoking notes of smooth coffee and bittersweet dark chocolate. These rich elements are seamlessly integrated into a bready, biscuity base characteristic of the style. A subtle, mild bitterness emerges from earthy and herbal hop additions, providing a clean counterpoint to the malty sweetness. The finish is remarkably approachable, offering a lingering hint of cocoa without any harsh burnt qualities, making for an evocative and comforting dark ale perfect for its namesake 'Good Evening' occasion.

Appearance. Dark brown in color with brilliant ruby highlights when held to the light. It features a moderate, creamy light tan head with good retention and fair lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity with a complex malt profile of bready, biscuity, and toasty notes. Prominent scents of milk chocolate and light coffee are complemented by low earthy and herbal hop aromas and a faint hint of dark fruit esters.

Taste. The initial impression is of smooth toasted malt, leading into flavors of bittersweet chocolate and mild coffee. The sweetness is balanced by a medium-low bitterness from earthy hops. It features a clean, slightly dry finish with lingering notes of caramel and cocoa, free from any burnt or harsh acridity.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, lightly creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate and the alcohol presence is very low, providing a gentle and approachable mouthfeel with no astringency.
