A belgian-style barleywine? We know, the monks would turn around in the grave. But our Oracle is the perfect union of two historical styles as the belgian quadrupels and the english barleywines. Full in body, this copper strong ale releases aromas of caramel, dark & dried fruits and sweet malts, balanced by noble european hops.

"Belgian" barleywine, basically a quad with more of a pronounced barley bite. Sweet, slightly thin, delicious.

Fles gekregen van Inoven. Het is een donkerbruin bier met een medium schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van fruit en wat rook. De smaak is vol, fruitig, zacht zoet en wat caramel achtig met een warme afdronk.

Bottled. A dark, almost, black beer with next to no head. The aroma has notes of dried fruits, yeast, candy sugar, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of candy sugar, Belgian yeast, alcohol, and dried fruits, leading to a dry finish.
