​Øl i meget gamle dage var sort, brunt og skident. Sidstnævnte betød blot, at det var ufiltreret. Det bedste øl blev brygget på klostrene overalt i Nordeuropa. Blandt de dygtigste var cisterciensermunkene, der skabte fornemt øl af gode landbrugsvarer. Vi har brygget en gammeldags munkeøl - opkaldt efter biskop Eskil, der grundlagde en række klostre i 1100-tallets Danmark. Mest kendt er nok Esrum Kloster i Nordsjælland. Vi hylder hans minde med en behagelig humlet, knaldsort øl, der har fået tilsat belgisk overgær. Det er en øl, som kan nydes i en blød stol eller til et dansk frokostbord. En øl til alle tider.

Denne øl er brygget til vikingespillet, som finder sted i Frederikssund. Vi er stolte af at leverer øl, til dette traditionsrige event, som har sine rødder helt tilbage i 1952.

Best before 07.06.2016. The beer starts fresh and malty. Not too intense, hints of chocolate or caramel. The beginning is malty. Not too deep. The nice dry chocolate-nuts aroma arrive in the aftertaste and stay not too long. Malty hints, no bitterness. A bit boring.
