Moersleutel Vic 37.5cl

Moersleutel is known for its adventurous brewing style, and with Vic, they bring yet another special beer to the market. This Wild Ale has been aged for 26 months in Bordeaux wine barrel #18 and then dry-hopped with Vic Secret hops, a hop variety known for its intense tropical fruit aromas. The result is a beer that strikes a perfect balance between tart freshness, fruity sweetness, and firm bitterness, setting it apart from traditional Wild Ales.

The aging in Bordeaux barrels adds a subtle wine-like elegance, while the Vic Secret hops explode with flavors of pineapple, passion fruit, and citrus. A unique creation that is ideal for fans of hop-forward and barrel-aged beers.

Appearance

Golden yellow with a slight haze and a fluffy white head. The lively carbonation enhances the beer’s fresh character.

Nose

Tropical and refreshing! Aromas of pineapple, passion fruit, and a hint of citrus leap from the glass, complemented by light notes of white grapes and subtle oak influences from the barrel aging.

Palate

A crisp and vibrant taste with a mild yet pleasant tartness, beautifully balanced by fruity flavors of tropical fruit and citrus. The Vic Secret hops bring forward a distinct bitterness that pairs perfectly with the light funkiness from the wild fermentation and the soft tannins from the Bordeaux barrel.

Finish

Dry and refreshing, with a lingering bitterness and a light white wine-like aftertaste. The fruity notes linger beautifully, making every sip an invitation for more.
