BREWERY DESCRIPTION:
In 2007 Hugues Dubuisson, who loves wine as well as beer, visited the legendary Burgundy Chateau, Hospice de Nuits Saint George. He managed to acquire an excellent barrique (cask) of the famous wine. When he arrived home, he bottled the wine and filled the empty cask with Scaldis Noel. After ten months of maturation, the results were remarkable. The red wine staining of the barrel married perfectly with the malt sweetness and peach notes of the beer giving flavors of cherry, oak, tobacco, Pinot Noir and bitter chocolate. Taking almost a year to make, Prestige de Nuits is fermented three times (in tank, bottle, and burgundy cask).
Scaldis Prestige de Nuits has been named one of the '100 Beers to Try Before You Die' by Chris Schonberger at Complex Media's site First We Feast. We are honored that 12 Vanberg & DeWulf made the coveted list. A cask-conditioned strong ale aged in Cotes de Nuits barrels, the best marriage of beer and wood we've ever experienced. A perfect 100 on RateBeer and BeerAdvocate three years running from a brewery that's been in operation longer than Belgium has been a country.
