Kloster is our version of a Belgian abbey ale. Dark as an abbey’s cellar. Complex aroma with characteristic sweetness and convincing strength. A beer to experience!
This entry is for the filtered 7% Kloster, that was produced until 2005. The 9% version (that used to be called Julkloster until 2005) should be rated under Kloster 2005-.

Unfiltered. Brown-amber color; thin cap; a very thin perlage. Fizzy banana aroma, fresh and unusual; caramel and strawberry. Smooth sensation, but thin character, with a not too sweet malt, caramel; just the necessary hop. The body is too simple; pleasant but too easy Dubbel.

A brown unclear beer with no head. The aroma is too sweet (for my liking) with strong fruit notes. The aroma is weird, pretty sweet, but dies out way too fast. Too sweet for a dubbel - and watery in the end.

Somewhat sweet and alcohol-tasting. Dark, bitter chocolate in the finish....

Sampling of the 1999 version in March 2002: Dark amber in colour. Nicele hop aroma, alongside an estery banana aroma. Dry, beautifully balance and full bodied. bitter finish. This was a good beer to start with, and has after three years in my cellar turned into something really outstanding.

Beautiful, peachy, yeasty, sweet malt aroma, a lovely soft, aromatic malty palate and yeasty, off-dry finish.
