Varvar Three Black Crows
Three Black Crows is a soul-warming Old Ale that evokes the depth of a traditional British Christmas cake. This rich, dark mahogany pour offers an intoxicating bouquet of dried dark fruits, such as raisins and figs, seamlessly interwoven with dark molasses and toasted biscuit notes. The palate is luscious and complex, delivering layers of treacle, nutty caramel, and a subtle vinous character reminiscent of a fine sherry. A gentle, integrated alcohol warmth provides a comforting embrace, while the malt-forward profile lingers with a refined, semi-sweet finish. It is a prim yet evocative tribute to Victorian-era comfort, perfect for chasing away the autumn chill.
Appearance. Deep reddish-brown with a mahogany hue (SRM 20-22). Topped with a low, cream-colored head that shows moderate to poor retention. Generally clear, though its depth makes it nearly opaque in the glass.
Aroma. High intensity aromatics lead with a rich, malty-sweet foundation of molasses and dark treacle. Pronounced fruity esters suggest a complex blend of dried figs, raisins, and prunes, accented by a distinct biscuit and toasted bread character. Subtle nutty oxidative notes and a faint vinous quality emerge as it warms, with no perceptible hop aroma.
Taste. Initial impression is one of deep malt luxury, featuring prominent flavors of molasses, dark caramel, and toasted biscuits. The complexity is enhanced by moderate fruity esters of dark stone fruits. Bitterness is present but restrained, serving only to balance the significant malt weight. The finish is lingering and complex, transitioning from a malty sweetness to a drier, slightly vinous aftertaste with faint nutty undertones.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and chewy with a rich, velvety texture. Carbonation is low to moderate, enhancing the beer's substantial presence. A smooth, well-integrated alcohol warmth is clearly evident, providing a comforting sensation without being harsh.

Pre-Order: Shipping Early February The aroma of dried fruit with a hint of molasses and biscuits reminded of the famous British Christmas cake. So we named the beer in the manner of old English pubs. The imagination draws pictures of a slightly gloomy and prim London of the Victorian era, with stagecoaches, the foggy Thames, gothic prose and opium smoking rooms. It's strong and rich. It will warm you up if you feel cold or soaked in the rain.
