The Moersleutel 10 Years Inferno is a mega pastry stout with 10% ABV from the Moersleutel Craft Brewery in Alkmaar and is number nine in the ten-part anniversary series celebrating the brewery's tenth anniversary. The beer is designed to reach the palate from all directions: roasted almonds form a nutty base, coffee and cocoa nibs provide deep mocha intensity, and tonka beans with turbinado sugar add a warm, spiced caramel shimmer. On top of that, three kilograms of high-quality vanilla from Ecuador and Uganda provide a soft, creamy fullness and a full finish. In the glass, the stout appears deep black, on the palate it feels thick, velvety, and sweet, and the brewery describes the first sip as overwhelming, the second as the moment when the flavors truly unfold. Large, strong, and bold, the beer is suitable for tasting together in a convivial group and is served at about 12 °C. Bottled in a 44 cl can, it contains gluten-containing grains.
