Discover the beers of the Sisters of Maredret Abbey, a range brewed with spelt and plants, inspired by Saint Hildegard of Bingen. Spelt provides floral, nutty and slightly bitter notes and supports the yeasty aromas of the Altus. The use of plants, notably cloves and juniper berries for Altus, gives it its unique taste.
Maredret Altus develops a warm spiced bouquet with notes of clove, hay and juniper berries. The hop aromas will remind you of freshly cut grass and the caramel flavours give this abbey beer a comforting edge.

Bottle LCBO in Toronto. Really nice. Roasted malt a little doughy, mildly sweet, some grapes. Nice bright lingering taste.

Ambar anaranjada, de espuma de tamaño normal y retención corta. Aroma intenso, donde predomina el caramelo, que se impone a notas especiadas, clavo sobre todo. En boca es punzante de gas, oleosa, con cuerpo. Tono general tirando a dulce, bastante caramelo, pero ahora más claramente hay características especiadas, clavo, anis. Amargor moderado, final más seco. Algo cansina.

Bottle at home. Clear dark golden color, average sized white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, oddly herbal and spicy, quite bitter for a dubbel. Meh. Not very good.

330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 6.8%. Deep golden to amber colour, huge white head. Aroma of Belgian ale yeast, malts and mild spices, including juniper berries. Flavour with the same elements, not too sweet, some fruitiness too, low bitterness.

330ml bottle bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Durable pearl white head over a near-clear amber body, good lacing. Moderate aromas of herbal hops and berry skins. Mixed taste of dark berries and some yeasty fruitiness. Mid-sweet soft fruity ending. Mouthfilling. Decent. (Tromsø, 23.01.2024).
