Malheur Dark Brut is a refined dark beer from Brouwerij De Landtsheer, crafted using champagne-style bottle fermentation. At 12% ABV, it merges the elegance of sparkling wine with the warmth of a Belgian Strong Ale.

The aroma reveals complex layers of sherry, Madeira, vanilla and oak wood, complemented by hints of Haagse Hopjes—those distinctive Dutch coffee and caramel sweets. On the palate, chocolate maltiness unfolds alongside dark fruits, prunes and subtle spice, balanced by tannic bitterness that never overwhelms.

The finish is smooth and lingering, with a full body that coats the mouth like mocha. This is a contemplative beer, equally at home with dark chocolate or as a sophisticated closing to dinner.
