Description
Averbode Abbey beer is a tribute to history: from the 14th to the early 20th century the abbey was already actively engaged in brewing. For the production of the ‘new’ abbey beer the abbey opted for Brouwerij Huyghe, which also has a rich history of its own.
However, there are also similarities. Respect for the environment and society play a central role in the brewery. Indeed, Brouwerij Huyghe is the only brewery in Belgium to produce the Mongoza-beer that has received the fair trade, gluten free and organic label. It also actively invests in a smaller footprint and social employment.

Bottled. Cloudy honey ale. The head is nicely frothy and stable. The aroma moves fruity components to the front. Spice yeastiness stays back. Medium body. Soft carbonation. Medium sweet taste. Apples & pears. Delicate yeast. Light plus bitterness. Good at least.

Flaska från Belgiuminabox. Gyllengul, lätt disig med riktigt högt skum. Doft av honung, estrar, jäst, alkohol och höiga örter. Ganska söt, smaker som doften, lite vaxig honung, lite alkohol slår igenom. Ok lite sötare blond.

Oranje/donkergeel bier met schuim. Smaak is wat vlak en zwak, licht bitterzoet met ver weg iets van abrikoos en framboos. Leuk om te drinken op het terras van de abdij.

Bottle from Deca and drunk at home. Clear gold colour lasting white head. Somewhere between Duvel and a tripel. Sweetish orange candy peel with a touch of herb. Some bitterness. Yes it’s fine. Drinkable enough. Hides ABV pretty well. some decent hoppiness.

From the bottle. Pours golden with abundant foam. Aroma is herbaceous at first, but honey and malt come out too when warmer. Body is medium and nicely carbonated. Taste is sweet (honey), but not too much. Finish is short enough, so that the sweetness doesn’t overrun.

BOTTLE 33 CL. Almost clear golden, creamy white head. Smells fruity, tart fruit, cooked fruit. Notes of bread and corn. Slightly sweet, traces of drying alcohol, moderate grassy bitterness with notes of corn meal, that is a bit tiring. Overall, a decent Strong Golden.
