and whiskey (Ireland), which gives a smoky aftertaste to the beer.
MAUDE
This dark beer is brewed with a combination of four malts and you can clearly recognize this special composition in the aroma of Obscure Dark. You can feel
notes of caramel and vanilla, clearly influenced by the wood in the cask. The full-bodied taste offers you hints of caramel. This also guarantees a smooth mouthfeel, combined with a slightly smoky aftertaste.
Brewers talking
In 2021, The Musketeers brewery will start a new tradition: they will age the beers in wooden barrels each year to achieve a particular flavour development. Whisky, wine, rum or Calvados? Each year we will let a different type of barrel come into symbiosis with our beers. The wood of the barrel and the type of alcohol matured in the barrel will influence the beer!
