Dragonfly Girl with Red Ballon
Lightly sweet with a gentle spiciness from the cognac casks; the malt caresses the palate, accompanied by low bitterness, and the strength is barely noticeable. This organic quadrupel is dark golden with a silky mouthfeel and brings Belgian brewing tradition together with the noble character of cognac casks. Hopped with Bramling Cross (berries, citrus) and Huell Melon (honeydew melon, strawberry).
