Beer Profile
Cinquieme Bois (Anniversary Beer)
Cinquieme Bois is a Belgian Super Saison that balances a lofty 10.5% ABV with an unexpectedly light, dry body. This anniversary release reveals earthy and spicy farmhouse notes layered with subtle oak complexity from three months of aging on used French Oak Chardonnay staves. The influence of the wine barrel lends delicate hints of fruit and a gentle, tannic structure, framing the beer’s crisp finish. Its aroma combines farmhouse funk with whispers of grape and wood, while the mouthfeel remains dry and refreshing despite the strength, making it a nuanced interpretation of the traditional saison style.
