Jopen Meesterstuk 2020 is an ambitious Imperial Stout from Haarlem, brewed with cocoa, sea salt, caramel and vanilla. This robust beer (11.1% ABV) spent 434 days maturing on Heaven Hill and Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels, creating a full-bodied, complex flavour profile.

The bourbon aging contributes sweet vanilla notes and warming bourbon character, complemented by rich chocolate and caramel from the base recipe. Oatmeal in the grist delivers a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. This is a stout for slow sipping, with enough alcohol warmth and flavour depth to reward patient appreciation.
