Description
In a nutshell:
An intense and bitter-sweet Belgian Abbey Dubbel from the Duvel Moortgat Brewery near Antwerp.
The lowdown:
Brewed under licence from the monks of Maredsous Abbey since 1963 it originally appeared only at Christmas time but has since become a year round brew. It has a beautiful red-brown colour with a light-brown, thick head and the aromas are of caramel followed by roasted notes with hints of mocha. Very smooth and velvety on the tongue with a full, but not overpowering alcoholic body.
With a rich history dating back to 1871, Belgium's Duvel-Moortgat, who are based south of Antwerp, was only saved from closure in 1970s when it agreed to distribute a rival Danish beer. The brewery has gone from strength to strength since and was an early investor in the craft beer scene in America. Apart from their well regarded label Duvel, Moortgat owe much of their recent success to acquisitions within Europe and America with the purchase of Brasserie D'Achouffe, De Koninck and Boulevard Brewing Company, Kansas to name only a few. Other iconic beers from this brewery include Maredsous abbey ales and Vedett.
