International Bitterness Unit

IBU is the bitterness of beer. Dutch pilsner is approximately 15-20 IBU, while a West Coast IPA can quickly reach 60 IBU. IBU is always in proportion to the alcohol percentage of the beer, so a heavy beer with high IBU can still taste sweet because the maltiness overpowers the bitterness.

The story

3565BC Barrel Blend BA

This Barrel Blend is an Imperial Stout that has matured for up to 3 years in a wide variety of Bourbon and Whiskey barrels. This ensures a balanced barrel flavor with both smoky and sweet notes. The delicious roasted malts provide a full chocolate flavor in the aftertaste. Matured in our brewery in beautiful Overvecht, zip code 3565BC.

Imperial stouts are ideal for aging in wood because they have a full body in combination with a lot of alcohol. The match with beer is also self-evident, whiskey is largely made with the same ingredients. The roasted malt provides a challenging roasted taste that competes well with the alcoholic flavors from the cask.
