Ahead of our Twinbottling by the Irish Clonakilty Distillery in collaboration with 2 Dutch Breweries, Whisky Center presents a very tasty Nieuw Ligt Barley Wine at 10% ABV, finished on Heaven Hill Barrels which are now used to mature Irish Whiskey in the Clonakilty warehouse.
This ‘heavenly’ Barley Wine is brewed in Nijmegen, oldest Town of the Netherlands, at the Valkhof bij Master Brewer Thieu Hegger from Brouwerij De Hemel.
Our ‘collabs’ with Thieu brings us a fine Barley Wine:
“With Barley Wine as part of our core range, with this finish on Heaven Hill we expand our spectrum on nose and taste and further explore the sweetness with aroma’s of Caramel, Sugar Candy, Maple Syrup and Malt.
The finish is also warming with the aftertaste offering a full sense of sweetness where the higher alcohol percentage is more distance in favor of the Heaven Hill Cask adding to the flavour.
We will explore cask finishes more, all be it in a moderate pace, for like whiskey, beer also needs time… and space.“

A great surprise with a unique taste and color. It diserves a five star rating.

Het Heaven Hill biertje: mooie donkere kleur, je ruikt het eiken vat goed en de mout nog beter, schuimt goed maar is vrij snel ingezakt, smaak is wat moutig, wel ok, blijft wel lekker hangen, beetje vlak in de smaak waardoor ik er na 1 flesje wel genoeg van heb gedronken. Al met al lekker stevig biertje.

Heel bijzonder en mooi product, de rijke smaakt van de gerste wijn komt mooi naar boven zonder te overheersen.
