Westmalle brewery

For more than 200 years the Westmalle Trappists have chosen a life of prayer and work. That is their true vocation, entirely in accordance with the rule of Saint Benedict. Monks, he stipulates, have to provide for themselves.

Thus there is also a brewery within the abbey. The monks deliberately keep production small, with special care for man and the environment. And because profit is not their motive, they spend the surplus from it on charity work and on people in need.

Authentic Trappist Ale. Pours a cloudy dark brown color with a big tan head that lingers. It has a very attractive aroma of fruits, yeast, spices, caramel and malts. Full bodied with moderate carbonation, the flavor is malty with hints of plums, banana, yeast, and spices. The finish is somewhat dry and fruity, with a lingering sweetness.

75 cl (25.4 fl.oz.) format of Authentic Trappist Ale. Pours a golden brown with a slight haziness. Strong generous off white head. Initial odor is of candy and alcohol notes with some spiciness. Definite spiciness and tartness in the taste. Finishes bitter but slightly dry. It is remarkable that the beer matures differently in these larger 75cl  bottles. The fruity aroma is somewhat softer and riper, and the beer gets a light touch of vanilla. Beautiful nectar of the gods !
