About

The BW20 Cognac Barley Wine from Berging Brouwerij is a commemorative beer originally brewed to celebrate the brewery's first anniversary. This robust barley wine is built on a foundation of Pils, Special B and Caramout malts, with Magnum and Northern Brewer hops, fermented using a Belgian yeast strain. Its distinctive character comes from an infusion of cognac—a blend of 60% grande champagne and 40% petit champagne. This addition introduces subtle notes of jasmine, acacia, vanilla and oak into the flavour profile. The beer's malty depth merges with the warmth and complexity of the spirit. A compelling barley wine for those seeking layered, full-bodied flavours with a refined spirit dimension.
