About this release

This exceptional Wheat Wine has matured for 660 days in Genever barrels from Dam Dranken from West-Terschelling, one ex-Bordeaux barrel of 6 years and one ex-Bourbon barrel of 11 years old. The result is a rich and complex beer with notes of honey, oak wood, caramel and a subtle spiciness from the Genever. The long maturation provides depth and balance, with a velvety smooth finish and a hint of maritime character thanks to the Thalassa voyage of the barrels. This exceptional beer comes from Eggens, a Dutch brewery from Groningen known for characterful and flavorful beers with a passion for the brewing craft. The collaboration with Dam Dranken from West-Terschelling results in a masterpiece of craftsmanship and patience. This limited release from 2025 showcases how extended maturation in wooden barrels can transform into something truly special. The subtle interplay between the different barrel characteristics and the original Genever base makes this a beer for enthusiasts who appreciate complexity and refinement. A gem for your beer collection and perfect for a moment of reflection.
