Full-bodied and complex, St. Bernardus ABT 12 is known for its deep mahogany colour and layers of dark fruit, caramel, and spice.
St. Bernardus ABT 12 (10%)
St. Bernardus ABT 12 is one of the world’s most revered Belgian abbey-style quadruples. Its roots lie in the brewing traditions of the nearby Trappist monks of St. Sixtus Abbey at Westvleteren. Westvleteren recipes were brewed under license at the St. Bernardus brewery from 1946 to 1992, when the rules for Trappist beers forced the monks at St. Sixtus Abbey to brew entirely within their own walls.

Chimay Blue (10%)
Chimay Blue is one of the most famous Trappist beers ever brewed. The monks at Notre Dame de Scourmont began brewing in 1862, 12 years after the founding of their abbey. First brewed in 1956 as a Christmas beer, this Belgian Quadruple is prized for its depth and ability to age gracefully for many years. It’s rich, dark, and contemplative - changing in the glass as it warms up and loses carbonation.

Averbode (6.9%)
Averbode is the result of a collaboration between Norbertine Abbey of Averbode, a monastery founded in 1134, and Brouwerij Huyghe, a famous Belgian family brewery founded in 1906. Averbode Abbey has played a role in Belgian brewing for centuries and was destroyed and rebuilt several times through wars and political upheaval. The modern Averbode beer is from 2014, reviving a long tradition of monastic brewing that connects Belgian history with contemporary Belgian brewers. This Belgian Golden Ale balances soft malt sweetness with gentle bitterness and a touch of spice from traditional Belgian yeast.

Duchesse de Bourgogne (6.2%)
A classic example of historic sour Belgian beers and a living expression of a style that goes back centuries. Duchesse de Bourgogne is one of the most celebrated examples of a mixed-fermentation Flemish red ale, a historic style from the Flanders region of Belgium. Brewed by the family-owned Verhaeghe brewery in Roeselare (founded 1885), this beer reflects a regional tradition that dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries, when brewers matured beer in large oak vats (called foeders) to develop complexity and character.
