Moersleutel Factory Motor Oil Santa’s Fuel 2025 beer 44 cl 12%
Moersleutel Factory Motor Oil Santa’s Fuel 2025 is a powerful and dessert-inspired imperial stout at 12%, brewed with vanilla and dark roasted malt – a Christmas beer with depth, warmth, and oily intensity.
This 44 cl canned beer from Dutch brewery Moersleutel Craft Brewery is a special edition in the Motor Oil series, developed as a winter-warming variant with extra body and a vanilla-forward profile. Santa’s Fuel is brewed as a Russian Imperial Stout, focusing on roasted notes, chocolate, coffee, and vanilla, and is specially crafted for the holiday and winter season.
Color: Black as motor oil with dense, dark brown foam
Aroma: Roasted malt, dark chocolate, vanilla, coffee, and leather
Flavor: Intense and full-bodied with layers of espresso, licorice, burnt notes, and bourbon vanilla. The vanilla rounds off the robust malt and adds a softer finish
Mouthfeel: Thick, oily, and almost syrupy with low carbonation – typical of the Motor Oil series
Brewed with barley malt, wheat malt, hops, yeast, vanilla, and likely muscovado sugar or other dark sugars to enhance body and sweetness. The beer is unfiltered and has a long shelf life – best before October 2028 depending on batch.
Best served at 12–14 °C in a snifter or tulip-shaped glass. Ideal as a dessert beer, with chocolate cake, vanilla ice cream, nuts, or as a fireside companion. Its high alcohol content makes it suitable for aging and slow sipping.
