Discover the range of excellent Gouden Carolus beers offered by the famous Belgian brewery Het Hanker. This Flemish brewery is one of the oldest ones from belgium since it was founded in 1369!

The Gouden Carolus Classic is a top-fermented dark beer that has been re-fermented in bottle so that it can mature its taste qualities.

It pours a nice mahogany to ruby colour topped by an impressive but short-lasting head.

The beer challenges the nose with malty aromas and very fruity scents reminiscent of caramel, plums and grapes. One can also perceive a hint of anise.

On the palate, the taster will notice malted and fruity aromas with a slightly syrupy texture. Roasted notes marry fruity flavours of black fruit and dry fruit for a perfectly balanced whole. Then, one can also find notes of plums, prunes, grapes and raisons. When you add the alcohol, you could feel like you were tasting a fruit liquor.

Although they are there, the hops are not obvious, while the aftertaste grows intense over the minuts that follow the tasting, thanks to the refermentation in bottle used for this exceptional beer. One can find interesting to have the beer mature a few years in his cellar before opening it. You can serve this beer is its Carolus Beer Glass specially designed for this purpose.
