Refreshing as an aperitif. As full of flavours and rich in aroma as a beer from heaven. That’s DeuS. A magnificent symbiosis between beer brewing and sparkling wine production. Ideal for surprising your guests as an unusual choice with the appetizers or to sublimate your fine-food starters.
DeuS – truly the sparkling divine made from barley.
Every single sparkling glass of DeuS is the result of a long and complex process, combining the best of two different production methods. The brew master brews the beer and does a first fermentation in Belgium. After its maturation, the brew of DeuS is sent to France where this wonderful brew made from barley will be transformed into a sparkling nectar, according to centuries-old technics.

4. TURNING (“REMUAGE“)
The object is to release the yeast from the wall of the bottle and collect it in the neck. Bottles are positioned with their neck tilted downwards. Over a period of weeks they are turned slightly and at the same time put at a slightly greater slope until ultimately the neck is vertical.

DeuS is served in a classic flute glass. The glass needs to be picked up by the stem and tilted 45° and filled to generate a tight, white foam.
The foam will dissipate due to the 11.5% ABV and the mouth of the glass will hold the complex aromas and accentuate the enjoyment of the unique flavours.
Keep the opened bottle cold and sealed to maintain the carbonation.
Appearance: DeuS has a pale golden appearance,
tiny bubbles and a meringue-like foam.
Aroma: Hints of spiced bread, pear fruit and grassy,
floral hints. The flavour brings honey, flowers, thyme,
ginger and spiced biscuit notes.
Flavour: This beer is light-medium-bodied, delicate
and complex. It starts with smooth attack, developing
the palate with a dessert apple fruitiness with a subtly
dry spiced finish and elegant balance.
ABV: 11.5%
