About

Brouwerij de Natte Gijt in Weert crafts Hellegijt, a potent Russian Imperial Stout matured on wooden casks. This Bunnahabhain expression rests in ex-whisky barrels, developing dark, layered character. The nose shows roasted malt, dark chocolate and coffee notes, while the palate delivers a full, medium-sweet body balanced by assertive bitterness in the finish. At 12% ABV, this is a warming, substantial beer built for contemplation. Barrel aging lends complexity and a vinous quality that elevates the traditional stout framework.
