Gouden Carolus Cuvée van de Keizer Imperial Dark (2016)
11.0% Belgian Strong Ale
Every year on the 24th of February, we celebrate the birth of Charles Quint. Therefore we brew a special beer in limited edition called Gouden Carolus Cuvée van de Keizer Imperial Dark (‘Grand Cru of the Emperor’). This exceptional ale ages well, developing a refined complexity and intense aromas. With powerful notes of roasted malts, caramel and plums, its surprisingly soft and fruity aroma combines a warm roundness with a refreshing taste. It is imperially crowned with a cork so it can be preserved for a long period of time at a constant cellar temperature of 12° C (54°F). An imperial beer to cherish and enjoy in moderation.

Vintage 2016 drinking at 5 yo.
Nose has plum and chocolatey sweet roasted malt.
Taste is incredibly soft! Chocolate, ripe plum, a lots of sweetness with tones of caramel and candi sugar. Soft bitterness with herbal undertones.
Mouthfeel is viscous, foamy and thick and carbonation is on perfect level.
The beer has aged well and combines the palate as a seamless journey of pleasure.

Punertava, hieman happoinen ja kirkas olut.
Hieman shamppanjainen, rypäleinen. Aika perus belgialainen tuoksu.
Maku on makean puoleinen. Aika hyvää.
