Extraordinary beers #2

The following beer is very rare. Mainly due to the fact that the beer was never officially released. We are talking about the Kapittel Wood Experience. Read on to find out more about this special stuff.

A bottle of Kapittel Wood Experience without label.

What makes this beer special?

Only 1000 bottles (75cl) are produced. The beer was given to various festival visitors. They were very curious for the responses. We found this bottle at beer collector Huub van Dijk. Back then, he managed to gather 3 bottles at a beer festival. However, the beer has never been officially released.

What does it taste like?

This we can explain best by describing how it was made. It’s a mixture of Paulus Oud Bruin and Kapittel Pater. This mixture of beers was distributed in 5 different barrels, namely Sherry, Porto, Armagnac, Cognac and Bourbon. After the barrel-aging process, the barrels were mixed again. Perhaps the extensive process is also the reason it was never released.

Where was the beer sold?

As mentioned before, this beer was never released. Therefore, the labels are missing on the bottles that you can find. The beer is very well suited for long storage. And if you know how to find one, you can still drink it. Unfortunately, the chances of finding one are very small.

What is the actual value?

Honestly, we have absolutely no clue. This is mainly because there is no available data from recent sales. In the this case it will most likely be what it’s worth for someone.
