Working closely with Wim van der Spek, head brewer at Little Valley Brewery in Hebden bridge, the monks of Ampleforth have once again begun to sell ‘La Biere Anglaise’. Following extensive research, Wim has paired modern brewing techniques with the fragments of information available to produce Ampleforth Abbey Dubbel – a beer as rich in history as it is in flavour.

Bottle from Campbell's, Leyburn. A chestnut-brown beer with a beige head and a light fizz. Mild banana up front, with lots of malty brown bread and caramel, and a touch of roastiness and straw. Pleasant cross between an English Strong Ale and a Dubbel

Bottle shared in London - cheers! Pours clear brown with a creamy, tan head. Medium sweet flavour, nice toffee and brown bread, some Belgian yeast. Medium bodied, lightly oily, with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, more brown bread and toffee and Belgian yeast. Sound.

330ml bottle: BBE Nov 17. Poured into a Westmalle Trappist chalice at home on 1st July 17, the last beer in a mini-tasting session with myself. Mahogany colour, clean looking: the head a thin off-white wispy affair. Malty front to the brew, semi-sweet throughout, slight bitterness in the lasting finish. Decent.

The taste is earthy roast, toasty, charred wood, cocoa nibs, light spice, dark fruits, some alcohol warmth, coffee, candy and liquorice with a dry, toasted finish. Medium - full body and moderate,foamy carbonation. Decent.
