Hertog Jan Grand Prestige

◎ Aussehen

Deep ruby-brown color with excellent clarity and a rich, creamy head that persists admirably. Fine carbonation creates delicate bubbles that rise steadily through the glass, leaving elegant lacing on the walls.

◌ Aroma

Complex bouquet dominated by dark stone fruits and dried cherries, layered with caramel malt sweetness and subtle chocolate notes. The alcohol warmth is present but well-integrated, with hints of spice and yeast character from bottle-conditioning adding depth.

◐ Geschmack

Rich and full-bodied entry with pronounced dark fruit flavors followed by caramel sweetness and chocolate in the mid-palate. The 25 IBU provides restrained bitterness that balances the sweetness, while warming alcohol and subtle spice develop toward the finish without overwhelming.

◑ Abgang

Long, satisfying finish with dry and crisp character that cuts through the richness, leaving lingering notes of dark fruit and chocolate. The alcohol warmth provides a pleasant glow without harshness, inviting another sip.

Bei 12–14°C servieren. Ein kontemplatives Bier — Wärme erschließt dunkle Frucht, Karamell und komplexes Malz.

Das breite Mundstück und der schwere Fuß fördern die Schaumbildung und leiten reiche Aromatik zur Nase. Traditionell für belgische Starkbiere.
