About this release

Imperial Pastry Stout at 11% ABV, inspired by the Slovenian Gibanica, a layered dessert cake with multiple fillings. This ambitious beer from Clef Brewery in the Slovenian Arja Vas has been brewed with a double mash and super caramelized grains, creating a rich and full-bodied base. The brewery has managed to bring three layers of flavor to this beer: apple, poppy seed, walnut, vanilla and cinnamon. The result is a luxurious and complex pastry stout that perfectly translates the essence of traditional Slovenian pastry into an exceptional beer experience. With an impressive alcohol content of 11%, this 375ml bottle offers an intense and full-flavored experience. The combination of the caramelized base with the subtle fruity notes of apple and the warm spices of cinnamon and vanilla create a harmonious whole. The notes of poppy seed and walnut add even more texture and depth. This is a beer for those who love dessert aromas and strong, characterful stouts. Perfect for quiet moments and as a meal closer, but also for lovers of experimental and boundary-pushing breweries. With Gibanica, Clef Brewery has created a truly unique creation that pushes the boundaries of traditional beer brewing. This pastry stout proves that ambition and craftsmanship from Slovenia deserve international recognition.
