Vatgerijpt #7 from Muifelbrouwerij in Oss is an ambitious barley wine matured for 20 months in Hennessy Cognac casks. This dark, full-bodied beer at 12% ABV merges the rich, malty foundation of the style with the warmth and fruit character imparted by cognac-cask aging.

The nose reveals dried fruit and raisins, supported by a brandy-like warmth. The palate is intense and layered: dark fruit, toffee and vanilla from the wood, balanced by the beer's boozy, warming strength. This is a contemplative beer for serious enthusiasts—bold, complex, and unapologetically strong.
