Moersleutel Barrel Blend III marries Imperial Stout and Barley Wine in a sophisticated blend aged across Macallan, Glen Burgie, Glen Garioch and Heaven Hill barrels. This Dutch craft brewery, founded by four brothers in Alkmaar, approaches barrel aging with precision and ambition.

The blend leverages the weight of stout alongside the vinous complexity of barley wine, deepened by time in whisky wood. Expect dark malt, oak, bourbon vanilla and warming alcohol—a contemplative pour that rewards patience. At 12% ABV, this is engineering through restraint and barrel selection rather than raw power.
