More information about Frank
The basis for Frank's special, unmistakable character is, quite classically and typically for a stout: the malts. And Frank is not at all stingy here, on the contrary: only the perfect interplay of several barley malts, including three different roasted malts, supplemented by oat and wheat malt, gives Frank its incomparably complex body, in which strong coffee and roasted aromas are particularly prominent and, in combination with fine cocoa and caramel notes, create a wonderful composition.
A pleasant hoppy bitterness in the finish is then particularly responsible for Hercules, which, in view of the intense malty note, has to work hard and is used in a truly divine amount to round off Frank's taste optimally. And we find that he succeeds excellently.
The result is a malt-driven, multi-layered beer in which coffee and roast aromas, combined with light creamy caramel and cocoa notes, complement each other to create a full-bodied treat. For us, an absolute taste experience.
Or to put it briefly: Frank isch süffig!
