Gulden Draak Classic

10.5% alcohol. Introduced in 1986. Dark tripel, brewed in Belgium by Van Steenberge. "Such an impressive symbol that has been around for more than 6 centuries requires an equally impressive beer. Like the dragon at the top of the city, Gulden Draak has been one of the world's best beers for years. It is a dark tripel, which in itself makes it an exceptional beer, but the complex taste with notes of caramel, roasted malt and coffee makes it unique. In short, the beer is worthy of its name. For the secondary fermentation use is made of a wine yeast that determines the unparalleled taste and that ensures the long-term taste evolution (= living beer). The older the beer gets, the more aroma it gets and the fuller the taste and color become. Gulden Draak is easy to drink as an aperitif, dessert or just when you have time to enjoy. This 'barley wine' harmonises perfectly with and in stews and with a Ghent stew in particular. It also gives added value to sauces with red meat such as bordelaise and is also ideal as a dessert beer, especially with dark chocolate." https://www.guldendraak.be/en/the-beer/gulden-draak-classic
