How to get the most out of Gouden Carolus Hopsinjoor
Warmer than most — 12–14°C. The fruity esters, spice and warming alcohol need room to breathe.
The wide mouth and heavy base promote head formation and channel rich aromatics toward the nose. Traditional for Belgian strong ales.
Store in a cool, dark place. Check the best-before date on the label for guidance.
