The dramatic image of the Four Horsemen as delivered to us in “The Apocalypse of John” offers itself as the illustration of NISSOS Red, Double Ale, Abbey-style beer. A contemporary interpretation of one of Europe’s most historic beer styles, developped in the early 19th century.

Sweet wort from selected barley and rye malts is fermented with Belgian yeast. A second fermentation reveals a typical estery aroma with banana, raisin and clove notes and a sweet, spicy flavour of candy and fruits.

330mL bottle, pours a cloudy dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma has toasted bready malt, Belgian yeast, and some red berries. Flavour has a nice Belgian yeast expression, toasted nuts, candied fruits, and caramel. Really solid expression of the Belgian yeast, finishing slightly sweet and nicely carb’d. Good stuff.

Hazy amber with a bubbly off-white head and a herbal malty aroma. Light to medium bodied, it has a candy sweetness to it alongside a floral/herbal element, toffee malt and brown sugar matched with floral hops, leading to a dry finish.
