Straffe Hendrik Heritage 75cl Belgian Barrel-Aged Dark Beer

Straffe Hendrik Heritage is a 75cl Belgian beer from De Halve Maan, made in the dark quadruple style and bottled at 11% ABV. This cork beer is matured for at least one year in Bordeaux oak barrels, giving the beer a distinctly barrel-aged profile.

Spicy aromas and bitterness meet subtle flavours of wine and wood. The palate also brings hints of liquorice and dark fruit, including sultanas, plums and figs. Tannins remaining in the Bordeaux oak harmonise with the rich notes of racy malts.

Time is an important part of this beer’s character. Straffe Hendrik Heritage has the potential to continue evolving over years of storage, developing port-like aromas as it matures. Serve this 75cl beer between 8 and 12°C to experience its layered oak, malt and dark-fruit character.

The name Straffe Hendrik honours the four Henris who have run the brewery since 1856. For Belgian beer discovery, Heritage offers a dark, oak-matured expression with the depth of a long barrel ageing period.
