It's extraordinary to imagine our Belgian Double features a complexity derived almost entirely from malt.
A clean, neutral ale yeast strain clears the way for layers of winter spice achieved using our "creative series" GINGERBREAD COOKIE INFUSION Malt in a fruitful merger with small additions of various specialty malts.

Malt-derived nuances of dried-fruit esters, spices, chocolate and cream balanced by a slight bitterness to result in a crisp and dry finish.

We think the Trappist monks would approve!

Pours surprisingly dark brown, medium to mediumlarge creamwhite colored, stable head. Scent is gingerbread alright, kinda sharp though. Bit herbal, almost a touch metallic - but it aint actual metallic. Taste is sharp, very recognizable after trying the malts on their own, yet more sharp in it's beerform. Gingerbread, clear on cinnamon for sure! Quite malty indeed, perhaps a bit over the top for me though. Mild chocolate notes. Medium to medium thin body, medium carbo.
