Other Half Brewing Co. Short, Dark & Handsome
Short, Dark & Handsome is a robust and inviting Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer that presents a deep, velvety profile. The base delivers a big, smooth, and malty foundation characteristic of a strong stout. Classic English hops, including Fuggles and East Kent Goldings, provide a refined earthy and floral counterpoint to the rich layers of bittersweet chocolate and roasted coffee. The added botanical or spice elements integrate seamlessly, enhancing the complexity without overwhelming the malt-forward core. Its smooth texture and balanced bitterness create a sophisticated dark ale that emphasizes harmony between traditional English hopping and a modern, adjunct-enhanced malt bill.
Appearance. Deep ebony to opaque black (SRM 38-40) with a dense, creamy, tan head that exhibits excellent retention and thick lacing.
Aroma. High intensity of roasted malts, featuring notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and toasted bread. The hop character is distinctly earthy, woody, and slightly floral due to the Fuggles and East Kent Goldings, while the spice or vegetable additions provide a nuanced, integrated complexity.
Taste. Rich initial impression of bittersweet cocoa and roasted coffee beans. Malt flavors are deep and bready, supported by the herbal and earthy notes of Fuggles and East Kent Goldings. The hop bitterness is moderate and serves to balance the residual sweetness. The finish is smooth and lingering, with a clean, roasted aftertaste and no harsh astringency.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a silky, creamy texture that coats the palate. Carbonation is moderate. A gentle, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, consistent with its strength, providing a comforting sensation without any fusel heat.
