Belgian abbey beer, dark dubbel. High fermentation with secondary fermentation in the bottle or barrel. Few other dark dubbels can match this Bornem Dubbel. Very dark, coffee colour - full rich body - staying head - effervescent nose - soft velvet feeling in the mouth - luscious. Malt character with a hoppy aftertaste. Monks used to fast on this type of beer for 40 days! No food, only beer. |
