Moersleutel Motor Oil Nitro – Imperial Stout 12%

Your Favorite Motor Oil, Now Smoother, Creamier & Bolder

Introducing Moersleutel Motor Oil Nitro, a brand-new twist on our iconic Imperial Stout. Motor Oil has long been one of our most beloved beers — rich, thick, and unapologetically bold. But now, thanks to the addition of nitrogen infusion, we’ve taken this stout to an entirely new level.

Nitro transforms the beer with a silky smooth texture, velvety mouthfeel, and a slightly sweeter impression, all without compromising the depth and intensity fans expect. To keep the balance just right, we boosted the roasted malt character, bringing more cocoa, coffee, and charred complexity into the fold.

The result?
Your trusted Motor Oil — even fuller, smoother, and more decadent than ever before.

A match made in heaven for stout lovers.


The Innovation Behind Motor Oil Nitro

Nitrogen Meets Engineering Precision

Motor Oil Nitro is built on the same engineering mindset that defines our stout program — but with a technical enhancement that elevates every sip.

What Nitro Brings to the Stout

  • Creamier texture thanks to microbubbles

  • A cascading pour effect reminiscent of classic nitro stouts

  • Enhanced sweetness perception for a rounder profile

  • Smoother finish with reduced carbonation bite

To ensure the beer remains balanced, we fine-tuned the malt profile with extra roast, adding depth and countering the natural sweetness nitro accentuates.

The result is a stout that flows like velvet engine oil — rich, smooth, and incredibly satisfying.


Tasting Experience

Aroma: Dark, Roasty & Luxurious

Expect notes of:

  • Dark chocolate

  • Freshly roasted coffee

  • Subtle burnt sugar

  • Charred malt

  • Hints of vanilla and caramel

The bouquet is bold yet refined, setting the stage for a deep, indulgent stout experience.

Flavor Profile: Creamy, Roasty & Intensely Smooth

The first sip is thick and silky, followed by:

  • Intense roasted malt

  • Bitter-sweet cocoa

  • Espresso-like richness

  • A touch of dark caramel

  • Gentle sweetness enhanced by nitro’s softening effect

The beer remains bold and powerful but loses none of the character that made Motor Oil a fan favorite.

Mouthfeel & Finish: Velvety & Full-Bodied

Nitro provides:

  • A luxuriant creaminess

  • A pillowy mouthfeel

  • A smooth, gliding finish

It’s Motor Oil — but more elegant, more polished, and dangerously drinkable for a 12% stout.

What Makes Motor Oil Nitro Unique?

A New Expression of a Moersleutel Classic

Motor Oil is one of our signature stouts — thick, dark, intense. With Motor Oil Nitro, we kept everything you love, but evolved the experience through:

  • Innovative nitro infusion

  • Enhanced complexity

  • A creamier, sweeter impression

  • A more luxurious texture

Balanced Through Extra Roast

Nitro can soften a beer significantly, so our brewers increased the roasted malt to maintain Motor Oil’s signature boldness. This creates a stout that is:

  • Rich but balanced

  • Sweet yet roasty

  • Smooth but powerful


Perfect Pairings

Food Pairings

  • Slow-cooked beef

  • Charred BBQ dishes

  • Aged gouda or smoked cheeses

  • Dark chocolate desserts

Desserts

  • Chocolate lava cake

  • Espresso tiramisu

  • Caramel cheesecake

  • Vanilla bean ice cream

The creamy nitro body and deep roast work beautifully with rich, sweet, and smoky dishes.


Serving Tips

  • Best Temperature: 10–12°C

  • Glassware: Snifter, tulip, or stout glass

  • Pouring: Invert the can once, then pour hard into the glass for a full nitro cascade

  • Storage: Keep cool and dark; nitro beers are best enjoyed fresh
