Gulden Draak Imperial Stout
11%
The Gulden Draak Imperial Stout is a dark brown to black colored beer and is the heaviest beer in the Gulden Draak range with its 12° alcohol by volume. The typical roasted flavor is obtained by adding roasted, caramelized malt used exclusively for this purpose. It is a very well balanced heavy beer.
The finish is rich and powerful. When tasting this specialty beer, you will discover aromas of banana and chocolate. The secondary fermentation comes into its own beautifully and will balance out the higher alcohols perfectly.
