About this release

A powerful abbey beer that has matured in wooden barrels in which Pedro Ximénez from the Spanish Montilla-Moriles region previously matured. This heavy dark beer retains its full body and warm spiciness, while it has absorbed subtle notes of raisins, figs, caramel and oak wood during barrel aging. A rich and harmonious abbey beer in which Spanish wine tradition and Benedictine brewing craftsmanship come together. Brouwerij Egmond, based in the North Holland town of Egmond aan den Hoef, has created a true masterpiece with this Pastorale PX Barrel Aged. With an alcohol content of 8.0 percent and available in a 750 milliliter bottle, this beer is perfect for sharing and enjoying special moments. The barrel aging in Pedro Ximénez casks gives this abbey beer a unique dimension that evokes Spanish wine traditions, while classical Benedictine brewing art manifests itself in the full and complex flavor profile. This is a beer that deserves time and can continue to develop in the bottle, ideal for lovers of characterful, full-bodied abbey beers with elegant wine influences.
