Silhouet

€23,50

A blend of older wild ales and a rustic saison

8.2% — 75 cl


Aged in our cellar to gain complexity and balance. Perfect to enjoy right now.

 

Silhouet is one of the beers that has a lot of potential to develop further in the bottle. We let a part of the batch rest for 2.5 years, during which the mousse has softened nicely, the hop character is well integrated and the aroma has become more refined.


Silhouet is a blend of wild ales aged for 2 to 5 years in oak barrels, together with a rustic saison. The result is a balanced wild ale where the character of aged wild ales meets the fresh and aromatic qualities of a saison.

Silhouet pours a dark orange color with lively carbonation and a frothy white head. The aroma shows poached peaches, brioche, black pepper, fragrant strawberries, hay and a touch of funk. The taste brings spicy notes, peaches and lemon with a gentle sourness and bitterness.

The use of 5-year-aged Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops gives a dry, slightly earthy finish, while the wild ales aged 2 to 5 years in oak puncheons add soft sherry-like notes of honey, vanilla and walnuts.

Ingredients: water, malted barley, wheat, hops, wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria.

Silhouet is very suitable for aging, especially for 3 up to 5 years. Store our beers upright or lying down in a cool, dark place. Our beers are best enjoyed between 12 and 14 degrees Celsius.
