About this release

Imperial Peated Stout aged on Islay whisky barrels in collaboration with Emperor's Brewery. This powerful stout of 13.3% matured for 12 months on Islay whisky barrels and developed deep, smoky and rounded flavors as a result. A complex stout that perfectly brings together tradition, craftsmanship and intensity, ideal for lovers of barrel-aged beers with a smoky whisky influence. Brouwerij Kees from Middelburg is known for its motto: life is too short for boring beers. With this Barrel Project beer, the brewery has once again proven why this applies. The collaboration with Emperor's Brewery resulted in a beer that pushes the boundaries of what is possible with barrel-aging. Kees is generally known for flavorful, fruity and hoppy creations, as well as powerful dark beers that all have a unique twist. The 12 months of aging on Islay whisky barrels gave Imperial Dominion the time it needed to absorb all the nuances. The result is an intense, complex stout with characteristic smoke and whisky notes that balance each other perfectly. This is a beer for serious lovers of barrel-aged beers, for whom the full alcohol percentage of 13.3% and smoky flavors are more of a promise than a daunting prospect. Perfect to enjoy slowly in smaller amounts.
