Description
We are always busy creating taste sensations, always looking for improvements or new flavours and optimizing our beers. Our beer is pronounced, complex, balanced, often full and soft in texture. We don’t brew beer for everyone, we only brew beer for people who love pronounced flavours. We do this by constantly tinkering with our recipes in search of perfection, we want to brew beer that is considered legendary. One has to tell stories about how great the beer of the Moersleutel is. Anyone who drinks our beer must be spoiled for life and must want nothing more.

Tap at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 3rd December 2025. As often is the case in other these guys now - it’s ruined by the sweetness

Can at home, shared with Dad, 1st January 2025. Pours black and very thick. Aroma is chocolate and caramel, coffee and barrel. Taste is rich, cake, chocolate, thick and slick in the mouth, mix of barrels, sweet, massive stout, one to share for sure

Can. Dark brown, almost black. Nose is brown sugar, pears, esters, caramel, raisin. Soft and silky, strong and boozy. Lightly tart, big brown sugar and dark fruit. Doesn't need to be this strong, I felt, but very fruity and tasty.
