Zware Hufter is the heavyweight of Brouwerij Dampegheest's range, a family brewery based in Limmen, Netherlands. This dark ruby-red barleywine carries a sturdy, light brown head and balances sweet malt character with pronounced spice—coriander, clove and liquorice root feature prominently in the blend.

At 10% ABV, this beer drinks with surprising ease despite its weight. The palate combines sweetness and bitterness with earthy undertones and raisin and aniseed fruit notes. Brewed with Dutch ingredients where possible and crafted without compromise, Zware Hufter is best appreciated in colder months when its full, malty body shines.
