This beer, with high fermentation, has a pale amber colour and a flowery, fruity taste with a harmonious balance between sweet and sour (8% alcohol content).
This beer has a thick and vivid froth and strikes by its balanced taste with a delicate bitterness.
St Bernardus has a history which is connected to two Trappist breweries, Mont Des Cats (Cheese) and the infamous Westvleteren (Beer). Shortly after the second world war the Trappist monastry St Sixtus in Westvleteren was looking to commercialise their beers, in step St Bernardus.
Any beer that comes from Watou, in West Flanders, is worth a try. This beer comes from Watou and is worth a lot more! A pale coloured tripel with a strength of 8% this beer is surprisingly moreish and is very easy to drink. There is a small amount of sediment in each bottle which is OK to drink, it won't even make the beer in your glass go cloudy. The brewery's history only goes back about 90 years, after World War 2 second hand coppers were bought and they brewed St Sixtus beers for the local monastery. This arrangement came to an end in the 1990s and they changed to brewing under the brand name of St. Bernardus. This is a wonderful beer and should be tried by all who appreciate skilful Belgian brewers.
