Socius Oak from Dorpsbrouwerij de Pimpelmeesch is an Imperial Stout aged in oak. This dark beer comes from Chaam in Noord-Brabant, where the brewery was established in 2000 as one of the Netherlands' first craft operations. The beer displays clear notes of roasted malt and oak, held in balance by light sweetness and malt bitterness on the finish.

At 8.5% ABV, this beer brings warmth and depth to the glass. The interplay of roasted grain and oak maturation creates a complex character that pairs well with slow-cooked stews and rich desserts.
