The unsurpassed Gulden Draak Classic (a dark triple of 10.5% alcohol) received a strong addition to it after 25 years of ever-growing success, the Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple. The particularly rich and complex taste and the full head are also found in the Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple. The sweet notes of caramel are, however, reserved for the Gulden Draak Classic.
The new recipe based on 4 times more malt gives the Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple a deep golden amber color and a slightly fruity aroma. Together with the soft and slightly sweet taste, this provides a beautifully rounded bouquet with notes of dried fruit. Just like the other specialty beers from Brewery Van Steenberge, Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple is a high fermentation beer with secondary fermentation. For the secondary fermentation use is made of a wine yeast that not only contributes to the unparalleled taste but also ensures a long-term shelf life with taste evolution.
The Gulden Draak 9000 Quadruple is inseparable linked to the city of Ghent: black and white are the official city colors, 9000 is the postcode of the city and the very first Gulden Draak 9000 quadruple was donated in the Belfry of Ghent!
