Foreign Extra Stout 7.3 º 60 IBU

K.E.G.S.

This Foreign Extra Stout presents a deep, nocturnal blackness, immediately suggesting its intense roasted foundations. The sensory experience is defined by the sophisticated use of three grain varieties and treatments, resulting in a profound profile of dark chocolate and heavily roasted coffee. Distinctive herbal notes reminiscent of bay leaf weave through the roast, adding a savory complexity and a touch of laurel-like spice. On the palate, the interplay of bitter cocoa and burnt grain is balanced by a dry, slightly vinous finish. At 7.3% ABV, it offers a sturdy presence, delivering a rich, satisfying warmth that perfectly complements its assertive roasted character.

Appearance. Jet black and opaque (SRM 40) with a large, creamy tan head that demonstrates excellent retention and leaves thick lacing.

Aroma. High roast intensity featuring dark chocolate, espresso, and burnt grain. A unique herbal quality suggesting bay leaf is present, alongside light notes of licorice and subtle dried plum esters. Low earthy hop aroma and a clean hint of alcohol.

Taste. Prominent flavors of roasted coffee and bitter cocoa without harsh acidity. The mid-palate reveals a savory herbal depth and a touch of molasses. High bitterness from both roasted grains and hops leads to a moderately dry, lingering finish of dark malt and spice.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture. Carbonation is moderately high. Features a noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth without any astringency from the dark grains.
