About this beer

King Louis XIII – Barrel Aged Lager is a robust offering from O’So Brewing Company, presented as a rare beer club selection. This imperial lager, clocking in at 10% ABV, is a captivating blend of tradition and innovation, purportedly inspired by the preference of King Louis XIII for wine. Crafted with a focus on complex flavors, it undergoes secondary aging in oak barrels, a process seemingly commissioned by the king himself to escape the intrigues of his court. The resulting beer unveils notes of caramel and dark fruit, layered with the subtle influence imparted by the barrel aging.

The label artwork vividly depicts a regal scene, featuring King Louis XIII himself amidst an ornate, baroque setting. The text on the label is presented as a historical narrative, describing a secret brewing operation within the royal palace at Fontainebleau, overseen by the king’s trusted courtier, Gaston. Utilizing Wisconsin-grown barley and natural flavorings, this barrel-aged lager aims to embody both royal luxury and personal freedom, presenting a dark, rich, and smoothly refined drinking experience.
