OJ Beer 20%
Twenty percent. On a beer. Read that again. This is the heavyweight champ of the O.J. Strong range, a Belgian lager that hits like a fortified wine but still tastes like beer. Pour one for a late night when you want one drink to actually do the work, not a whole sixpack. Golden, malty, warm on the way down. You sip this, you don't gulp it, and honestly that's half the fun.
Crack it and you get a big sweet-malt nose, almost like bread crust and honey, with a boozy warmth you can smell before you taste. It pours a clear gold under a thick white head. On the tongue it's full and rounded, loads of malt sweetness up front, then a gentle bitter tug at the back that stops it going syrupy. That 20% shows up as a proper warming glow in your chest, like a good brandy. Smooth, not harsh, but it does not hide its strength.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
It's brewed in Belgium, the country that basically wrote the book on strong beer. O.J. comes as a whole strong-lager range climbing from 8.5% all the way up to this 20% flagship. It's a bottom-fermented lager built on a high original gravity, which is the brewer's way of saying they packed a lot of sugar into the wort so there was plenty for the yeast to turn into all that alcohol. The recipe stays simple and classic: water, barley malt, maize and hops. Belgian know-how, turned all the way up.
