Brouwerij Kees from Middelburg ages their Caramel Fudge Stout in Oloroso sherry casks for eight months, creating a bold imperial stout at 11.1% ABV that marries dessert-like indulgence with the dry, nutty character of Spanish sherry.

Chocolate, caramel and vanilla dominate the aroma, with coffee and dried berry notes emerging on the palate. The sherry maturation adds warmth and subtle oak influence. The beer is dense and flavourful, finishing with a soft touch that balances its sweet and bitter dimensions without excess.
