About this release

Duchesse de Bourgogne is a classic Flemish brown ale from the renowned Brouwerij Verhaeghe brewery in Vichte, Belgium. The beer matures for 18 months in oak barrels and is then blended with a younger beer of 8 months, creating a perfectly balanced whole. This lengthy maturation and expert blending are characteristic of this traditional beer style. With an alcohol content of 6.2 percent, this is an accessible yet complex beer. Expect a refined combination of fresh acidity, a subtle oak character and flavours of passion fruit, chocolate and caramel, with a long, dry and elegant finish. The subtle interaction between the oak barrels and the maturation process gives this beer a distinctive identity. Duchesse de Bourgogne is a textbook example of the traditional Flemish brown ale style and a must-have for lovers of Belgian craft beers. This 37.5 centilitre bottle is ideal for those who want to taste this iconic classic without stocking up too much. A beer that has earned appreciation over decades and that deserves to be discovered or rediscovered.
