About this release

A special blend of Quadrupel and Barley Wine, aged in three unique casks: Cognac (filled in 2021), Irish Whiskey (2022) and Bourbon (2023). These first-fill casks have aged for an average of 870 days, resulting in a rich, complex flavor profile with notes of dried fruit, caramel, wood and a gentle spirit warmth. Eggens, the Dutch brewery from Groningen, demonstrates with this 006/2025 edition once again its passion for the brewing craft and creating characterful beers. The cask aging in three different wood types has created a fascinating interaction between the strong Quadrupel and Barley Wine. Each cask brings its own nuances: the elegance of Cognac, the smoky complexity of Irish Whiskey and the warmth of Bourbon. The result is a surprising and unique creation that invites discovery. The long aging period has fully integrated the beers with the wood, ensuring a layered drinking experience. The gentle spirit warmth closes elegantly without overpowering. This is a beer for the adventurous enthusiast who enjoys discovering something special. A must-try for anyone seeking depth and complexity in their glass.
