Indulgence 23

Barrel Aged Stout 14%

This product can only be purchased with a maximum of 5
375ml 14 99
Indulgence 23 is a blend of three stout styles, each aged in its own type of bourbon barrel. We start with a robust 16% stout, aged in Heaven Hill barrels for the classic bourbon flavor we love so much. Next, a rye stout, aged in Sazerac Rye II barrels, bringing a rich, umami complexity. Finally, a bold 45 plato stout, aged in Eagle Rare barrels, adding deep notes of leather, toffee, orange zest, spices, and oak. Eagle Rare barrels are rare and highly sought after, so we were thrilled to secure them for our Indulgence. The aroma of Indulgence 23 is bold and layered—dark chocolate, caramelized almonds, and a subtle hint of cigar.

Moersleutel Indulgence 23 – Barrel Aged Stout Blend

Three Stouts. Three Barrels. One Ultimate Indulgence.

Moersleutel Indulgence 23 is the pinnacle of our barrel-aging craft — a meticulously composed blend of three distinct stout styles, each aged in its own exceptional bourbon barrel, then united into one deeply complex and indulgent beer.

Powerful, layered, and unapologetically bold, Indulgence 23 is a showcase of patience, blending mastery, and world-class barrels. This is not just a stout — it’s an experience.

The Craft Behind Indulgence 23

A Masterful Blend of Strength, Wood & Time

Indulgence 23 was built by aging each component separately, allowing every stout and barrel to fully express itself before blending.

Component One: 16% Imperial Stout – Heaven Hill Barrels

The backbone of the blend starts with a robust 16% stout, aged in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels. These barrels deliver:

  • Classic bourbon warmth

  • Vanilla and caramel sweetness

  • Smooth oak character

This component provides structure, richness, and the unmistakable bourbon profile we love.

Component Two: Rye Stout – Sazerac Rye II Barrels

Next, we added a rye stout, aged in Sazerac Rye II barrels, contributing:

  • Spicy rye warmth

  • Savory, umami-like complexity

  • Dry, structured depth

This layer brings contrast and sophistication, cutting through sweetness with spice and depth.

Component Three: 45° Plato Stout – Eagle Rare Barrels

The final piece is a massive 45 Plato stout, aged in rare and highly sought-after Eagle Rare bourbon barrels. These barrels add:

  • Leather and polished oak

  • Toffee and caramelized sugar

  • Orange zest brightness

  • Warm spice and depth

Eagle Rare barrels are notoriously difficult to obtain, making this component especially precious — and we were thrilled to secure them for Indulgence 23.

Tasting Experience

Aroma: Deep, Bold & Layered

The aroma opens with:

  • Dark chocolate

  • Caramelized almonds

  • Bourbon-soaked oak

  • Subtle cigar and leather notes

Complex, elegant, and unmistakably indulgent.

Flavor Profile: Rich, Powerful & Evolving

Each sip unfolds in waves:

  • Dark chocolate and roasted malt

  • Bourbon vanilla and caramel

  • Rye spice and savory depth

  • Toffee, orange zest, and oak

  • Leather, spice, and warming alcohol

The blend evolves continuously as it warms, revealing new layers with every sip.

Mouthfeel & Finish: Luxurious & Long

  • Full-bodied and silky

  • Dense, coating texture

  • Warming but refined

  • Exceptionally long finish with lingering oak, spice, and chocolate

This is a beer meant to be sipped slowly and thoughtfully.

What Makes Indulgence 23 Exceptional?

Three Stouts, Three Barrels

Each component was aged independently to preserve its identity before blending — a true showcase of blending artistry.
