Lentebock is a strong Dutch lager, brewed to celebrate the arrival of spring. Orbit Lentebock was originally brewed as part of our White Label Series in 2021 and we decided to age a portion in Heaven Hill whisky barrels with Brettanomyces, due for release in the winter of 2022 as part of our Digger’s Series.

The result is a barrel-aged Lentebock (7.4%abv). Aromas of smoky leather and pineapple with a touch of caramel. The flavour is slightly acidic with a boozy warmth. A rounded bitterness that is balanced with a moreish sweetness and a dry finish.
