Salopian Brewery Black Forest
Stout 5.6 º
This indulgent American Stout presents a decadent interplay of dark, roasted foundations and vibrant fruit accents. Collaborating with Anspach & Hobday, Salopian Brewery utilizes cocoa husks from Land Chocolate to provide an intense, bittersweet cocoa depth that anchors the palate. Sharp bursts of tart cherry cut through the rich layers of dark chocolate and roasted grain, while a smooth, silky mouthfeel enhances the beer’s luxury. The presence of American hops provides a balancing bitterness against the malt sweetness, leading to a lingering, moreish finish characterized by deep roast and a hint of forest fruit.
Appearance. Jet black and opaque; pours with a thick, persistent light brown head that leaves substantial lacing on the glass.
Aroma. High intensity aroma dominated by dark chocolate and roasted coffee. Significant contributions from Land Chocolate cocoa husks provide a rich, bittersweet cocoa scent, accompanied by sharp, bright notes of red cherry. Subtle resinous hop aromas and low dark fruit esters round out the profile without any acrid or burnt sharpness.
Taste. The palate opens with layers of bittersweet chocolate and heavily toasted malt, bolstered by the earthy depth of cocoa husks. A distinct tartness from the cherries provides a sharp counterpoint to the initial malt sweetness. Hop bitterness is firm and well-integrated, providing a clean balance to the decadent chocolate flavors. The finish is smooth and lingering, leaving traces of roasted coffee and dark fruit.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a notably silky, creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate to high, providing a lifting effect to the rich flavors. A subtle, light alcohol warmth is present but smooth, with minimal roast-derived astringency.
