Almogaver / Zavod Black Paradise

This Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer presents a decadent fusion of a classic Stout base with exotic additions. Visually striking with its deep, dark pour, it releases a high-intensity aroma where the herbal, resinous notes of cardamom seeds intertwine with toasted coconut and rich dark chocolate. On the palate, the interplay of roasted malts and black cocoa nibs provides a sophisticated bitterness that cuts through the creamy texture. The coconut adds a subtle tropical sweetness, while the cardamom lends a refreshing, almost minty complexity to the half-dry finish. Balanced and approachable at 5.5% ABV, it offers a layered dessert-like experience without becoming cloying.
