Gruut Winterspecial is a dubbel from Stadsbrouwerij Gruut in Ghent, brewed without hop bitterness but with a blend of medieval herbs. This distinctive gruit delivers a spiced, lightly sweet profile with subtle pepper notes and an unusual finish that resists easy categorisation. The brewery distinguishes itself by reviving brewing traditions from before hops became standard. The Winterspecial combines a rich malt base with the herbal character that defines Gruut's identity. At 7% ABV, this beer offers warmth and depth, suited to winter evenings or pairing with sweet desserts.
