About this release

Eggens Vatgrijpt 013/2025 is a Grain Wine aged in old whisky barrels from Den Hool for approximately 308 days. The barrels were previously used for PX aging, which has provided a rich variety of flavors. The maltiness of the Grain Wine, brewed with barley, oats, wheat and rye, remains firmly present and is beautifully complemented by notes of whisky and Pedro Ximénez sherry. This powerful and complex barrel-aged beer with an alcohol content of 13.0% comes from the brewhouse of Eggens, a Dutch brewery from Groningen that focuses on brewing characterful and flavorful beers with local connection. The long aging in whisky barrels and the unique combination of four grain varieties make this a beer for the true lover of strong, complex flavors. The richness that emerges from the previous PX aging of the barrels adds extra depth. The distinctive characters of barley, oats, wheat and rye form a harmonious whole together with the whisky and sherry influences that invites contemplation and enjoyment. With a content of 330 milliliters, this bottle offers a full flavor experience that perfectly suits those who appreciate depth in their glass and are not afraid of full flavors. An absolute addition to any serious beer enthusiast's collection.
