Guldenberg is a tripel-style abbey ale containing 8.5% vol. Alc. Its colour is blond and it is made of pale malt with the addition of candy sugar. The bitterness comes from the Hallertau hops. On top of that we use dry hopping techniques with the same hops which give the ale its unique flavour and aroma and its perfect balance between sweet and bitter. The name came from the former Guldenberg Abbey in Wevelgem, the village of birth of Nino, one of the brewers. According to data in Flandria Illustrata ale was brewed here in the past.
Founded as a weekend project by two friends, Nino Bacelle and Guido Devos, De Ranke is very unusual for a Belgian brewery because it produces hop-forward beers.
