Description :
Cuvée Delphine is more than just a beer: it's a statement. Brewed from the famous Black Albert , this Belgian imperial stout is then aged for 12 months in Four Roses bourbon barrels, giving it aromatic depth and rare nobility.
👀 Dress & foam
Black as a masterpiece, with a dense and persistent beige foam. It commands respect from the first glance.👃 Nose
A captivating bouquet of vanilla, toasted wood, coffee, and dark chocolate. The bourbon is present, but never overpowering: it caresses rather than overwhelms.👅 In the mouth
- Attack: soft and velvety, with notes of brown sugar, bitter cocoa, and dried fruits.
- Mid-palate: oak, vanilla, and bourbon express themselves elegantly.
- Finish: long, warm, slightly tannic, with a subtle bitterness and a well-controlled alcoholic heat.
💪 Character
At 13% alcohol, it could be brutal... but it's not. It's balanced, refined, and mature. A beer that knows its worth.
🎨 The label
It proudly displays a work by Delphine Boël, artist and unrecognized daughter of King Albert II. The brewery pays tribute to her with this vintage, as a token of support for her quest for recognition. A beer that is as committed as it is elegant.
🎯 The experience
Cuvée Delphine is as if a Belgian stout had taken diplomacy lessons in the United States, then returned with a woody accent and princely assurance. It doesn't shout; it whispers truths. And every sip is a bow.
