Bidassoa Basque Brewery Nexus Oloroso

Nexus Oloroso is a sophisticated Belgian Dark Strong Ale that marries the deep, bready-toasty malt profile of the style with the nuanced influence of Oloroso sherry barrels. Pouring a striking mahogany with reddish glints, it offers a complex aromatic bouquet of red fruits, dark cherries, and oxidative sherry notes underpinned by seasoned wood. On the palate, a luxurious cherry liqueur character dominates, complemented by persistent oak and subtle roasted undertones. At 10% ABV, the alcohol provides a warming, smooth presence that enhances the rich esters of plums and raisins, finishing with a graceful balance of sweetness and vinous complexity.
