Brok in de Keel
Brok in de Keel is a warm, powerful Belgian strong dark ale of 8.5% ABV with a complex make-up: malty and spicy, with dried fruit and caramel on the nose, and a finish of caramel and raisins that carries a touch of smoke. Dark in colour, it comes from the brewery in Rha in the Achterhoek of Gelderland, close to the river IJssel.
