Ouderavond from Brouwerij De School is an Imperial Stout that plays with witty contradiction: sweet and rich in character, yet underpinned by assertive bitterness. The beer weaves together coffee, peat and chocolate into a complex, dark profile. The aroma reveals sweet caramel and toffee, followed by dry cocoa and coffee notes. On the palate, a full, sweet foundation develops with pronounced chocolate and coffee character, supported by a confident hop bitterness that remains balanced. The finish dries considerably, with lingering notes of dark roast and earthy peat. At 8.5% alcohol, this stout delivers full body and warming alcohol presence. Brouwerij De School, which took its name in 2017 after operating as De Twee Knaapjes, crafts this beer as a pastry-like indulgence tempered by serious bite—a beer with as much character as its name implies.
