About this release

An exclusive variant of Gulden Draak Classic, which after maturation ripens for another eight weeks in carefully selected American bourbon barrels that have been used only twice before. Subsequently, the beer undergoes classic secondary fermentation with the unique house wine yeast. The result is a refined, powerful beer with warm notes of honey, raisins, vanilla and wood, complemented by the lightly sweet aromas of bourbon. Brouwerij Van Steenberge from the Belgian Evergem has created a masterpiece with this Cuvée Prestige. The family brewery, especially renowned for their strong and characterful specialty beers such as Gulden Draak and Piraat, combines traditional recipes with modern brewing techniques here. This 750ml bottle contains a beer with 10.5% alcohol that is not in a hurry. The aging in bourbon barrels gives it a depth that you can discover step by step. The combination of honey, raisins, vanilla and wood creates a complex flavor profile that slowly unfolds on your palate. This is not a beer to drink quickly, but a special tasting experience that you should enjoy at leisure. Perfect for those who love refined, powerful specialty beers with a rich history.
