Monsieur Gordo Choconut
Monsieur Gordo Choconut is an indulgent Imperial Stout that masterfully balances a complex malt bill of Pale Ale, Wheat malt, and Roasted Barley with decadent additions of cocoa and coconut. The sensory experience is led by intense aromas of toasted coconut and bittersweet chocolate, underscored by the subtle resinous spice of Columbus and Chinook hops. On the palate, Cristal malts provide a rich caramel depth that supports the velvet-like texture of the wheat. The finish is long and luxurious, where the 9.4% ABV offers a gentle, integrated warmth that complements the lush, dessert-like profile of this jet-black ale.
Appearance. Jet black and completely opaque. It pours with a thick, dense, dark tan head that shows good retention and leaves significant lacing. High viscosity is evident by the legs formed on the glass.
Aroma. High intensity with a rich, complex blend of toasted coconut and dark cocoa. Deeply roasted grain notes of espresso and charred wood from the Roasted Barley are prominent. Very low hop aroma featuring slight earthy and resinous notes from the Columbus and Chinook varieties, with a clean, warming alcohol presence.
Taste. Intense initial flavors of dark chocolate and creamy coconut. The mid-palate reveals a sturdy malt backbone of bread crust, caramel from the Cristal malts, and coffee. Hop bitterness is low for the style, providing just enough balance to the high malt sweetness. The finish is sweet and lingering, with an aftertaste of cocoa and roasted grain.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied, chewy, and viscous with a velvety texture enhanced by the wheat malt. Carbonation is moderate-low. A smooth, gentle alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated, avoiding any harshness.
