I am drinking another variation of Moustache, this time Spumoni. I opted for a tulip glass, and the serving temperature is 50 degrees. The pour created a creamy, dark tan two-fingered head with average retention. The color is pitch black with dark rusty mahogany hues, opaque, and charts at an SRM 34. The appearance of the beer is average for this style.
Nosing the beer, I noticed milk chocolate, mixed with dark chocolate, coffee, dark roasted malts, cherries, a nutty, malty sweetness, molasses, raisins, and vanilla. The additional adjuncts are barely noticeable; chocolate still dominates the aromas.
The first sip reveals a dark chocolate with a mix of milk, and the chocolate is of higher quality than Hershey's. Sipping the glass, I can taste light char, caramel, earthiness, cherries, nuts, molasses, raisins, toasted sugar, malty sweetness, dark roasted malts, toasted pumpernickel bread, and vanilla.
The mouthfeel is thick and chewy, finishing with a creamy, smooth texture and no heat. The body is medium-plus and has a low amount of carbonation.
Final Thought: Like the Original, chocolate dominates the palate; however, this version was not as warm going down. The beer is velvety and soft. The adjuncts are barely discernible. Out of the three that I have tried, this is my second favorite.
