About

Æthelstan Barrel Aged 2020 is an Imperial Porter from Big Belly Brewing in Breda, matured in ex-Armagnac barrels. This ambitious beer draws on ten different malts, including roasted barley and peated whiskey malt, creating a full-bodied, layered experience. The palate reveals dark fruit, chocolate and wood, with peated notes adding refinement to its deep character. The barrel maturation contributes warmth and sophistication. This is a beer designed for lingering contemplation rather than quick consumption.
