Brouwerij Emelisse from Goes crafts this Imperial Iced IPA using the eisbock method—a freeze-distillation process that concentrates flavour and alcohol to an impressive 16%. The beer draws from ten different malts and sixteen hop varieties, creating a layered and full-bodied character.

Citrus and tropical notes lead the aroma, followed by caramel and orange in the taste. Despite its strength, the beer remains balanced and approachable, with a soft and pleasant finish—an unusual quality for an IPA of this magnitude. The complexity comes from careful ingredient selection rather than raw power.

A beer for those seeking intensity without sacrifice. Pairs well with aged cheese or savoury snacks.
