Prawn cracker of Gulpener IJsbock and nori

Prawn cracker made with Gulpener IJsbock and nori, served with a dashi and salmon gel.

Gulpener IJsbock owes its name to the brewing technique in which the brew, after fermentation, is cooled to -20˚C. As a result, part of the water freezes and the alcohol and aroma components are concentrated. The result? Intensely powerful beer with a surprisingly full flavor experience.
