About this release

De Rentmeester is a powerful Barleywine in which no fewer than ten different malt varieties and ten hop varieties come together. This rich and full-bodied beer offers a complex flavor profile with pronounced notes of caramel, almond and ripe fruit, supported by a sturdy malt base and a subtle hop bitterness. An intense and warming beer that lends itself perfectly to enjoying at leisure. With an alcohol content of 10.0%, De Rentmeester showcases the ambitions of Brouwerij Maallust from Veenhuizen. This brewery is located in the former grain mill of the prison and brews beers with a character full of history. The beers bear fitting names such as Zware Jongen and De Vagebond, and De Rentmeester fits perfectly into this rich range. This intense Barleywine demands patience and respect. The combination of ten malt varieties creates layers of sweet, roasted and fruity notes, while the ten hop varieties provide balance without taking center stage. The result is a beer that feels both rich and refined, perfect for long winter evenings or as the conclusion to a meal. A beer to be enjoyed in small sips, with each moment revealing new levels of complexity.
