I won a pound of this Perla Negra roast grain a few weeks back so I figured I’d use it all in one blast to see what we get out of it. All of the descriptions I’ve seen on it seem to make it out to be a “softer” roast. One of the huskless roasts, […]

review homebrew, homebrew beer, stout Leave a comment
Here at the local Homebrew shop drinking a local homebrewers stout.
I believe he called this a foreign extra stout. And will be poured from the tap.
Pours with a nice tall tan head. That seems to last for days.
Almost pure black. But a bit of Ruby high lights, but you really gotta look. Nice looking that’s for sure
Aromas deep chocolate with a light fresh bread thing going on. Not like yeast,, but baked bread. No roast in the aroma. Only the lightest hop aroma, but could be in my head. The chocolate really dominates here.
Light sour Tang with light roast taste. And I for one really like that. Still very chocolate but now the roast is starting to stand out, but nothing crazy like there should be in a foreign extra stout. Needs more black roast for sure.
A bit,, watery I think is the term I’m looking for, but still enough body for me. Could have a bit more bitterness because the alcohol feels pretty high. But it is totally fine where it is.
I am going to assume he chose to call this beer a forign extra because of the higher alcohol. But while I do like,, or even love this stout.. I would not go with foreign extra.
Exceptional beer here. If I was Untapping this I would go with 4/5. I want more.
