Nevel Artisan Ales in Nijmegen crafts wild ales using local heritage ingredients. Sintel is a pale ale brewed with roasted willow bark, an ingredient that brings distinctive warmth and spice. The beer is barrel-aged, developing notes of brown sugar, clove and dark caramel on the nose.

Gently tart and softly bitter on the palate, with underlying vanilla warmth. The roasted willow bark contributes nutty and woody undertones that ground the beer's complexity. A dry, lingering finish with subtle bitterness rewards patient sipping, revealing layers that emerge as the beer opens up.
