From the brewery's website:
Gulden Draak Brewmaster is een ode van de zesde generatie meesterbrouwer aan de vorige generaties brouwers van de brouwerij Van Steenberge, aan het vakmanschap van onze traditionele brouwkunst en met name aan de vijfde generatie brouwer: Jozef Van Steenberge, die zich rond het jaar 1975 verdiepte in de speciaalbieren, gecombineerd met de experimenten van de nieuwe ‘Craft beer world’.
Bij de Gulden Draak Brewmaster zullen de brouwers het basisbrouwsel van de Gulden Draak Classic laten rijpen op houten vaten afkomstig van gedestilleerde dranken, afhankelijk van de beschikbaarheid.

(Bottle) Reddish brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, fruity, slightly vinous nose with notes of caramel, dried fruit, raisins, prunes, brown bread, oak wood and a touch of whisky. Malty, fruity taste with caramel, raisins, prunes, brown sugar, syrup, dark bread, a touch of cinnamon, oak wood and a vinous finish with a balanced spicy bitterness and a touch of whisky. Full body, quite sweet. A bit sweet and sticky, but tasty and warming. Nice one.

Clear deep amber pour with a thin off-white head. Notes of wood, caramel, prunes, raisins and other dried fruit, sherry, toffee, oak, subtle vanilla. The barrel notes and base beer blend together beautifully. Full body, sticky texture, low carbonation and a sweet and a bit boozy finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of Gulden Draak The Brewmasters Edition on 23 May 2018 at 22:07 - Score: 8
