Better late than never! Gouden Carolus Wh**ky Infused and Gouden Carolus Classic were supposed to be a part of Belgian B**r Week, but they literally missed the boat.

ON THE BOARD:
🍺 Gouden Carolus Classic: The legendary dark ale, rich with warm caramel, dark fruit, and centuries of Belgian tradition.
🥃 Gouden Carolus Wh**ky Infused: The classic dark ale infused with Gouden Carolus Single Malt wh**ky. Rich, powerful, smooth, and dangerously drinkable.

Heavy-hitting liquid incoming down the lane! 🥃

On Thursday, September 17, we are tapping a true titan of the Belgian b**r world: Gouden Carolus Imperial Dark (Wh**ky Infused).

To create this absolute masterpiece, Het Anker infuse their legendary Cuvée van de Keizer Dark with their own single malt Gouden Carolus Wh**ky. The result? A rich, velvety dark ale bursting with warm oak vanilla, dark chocolate, ripe plums, and a smooth, gentle wh**ky glow.

Clocking in at an impressive 11.7% ABV, this is pure liquid luxury in a glass and a absolute rarity on tap in Australia.
