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.

Bottle. A clear golden beer topped by a creamy, white head leaving lacings. The aroma is fruity and quite sugary, with some porridge and light bread. Grass, fruits and a yeasy hint. Some alcohol. It’s full-bodied and lightly warming, with a high but pleasant carbonation level. Grainy, fruity and sugary flavor with yeast and a peppery touch. Lasting finish. Quite nice actually, but too boozy and yeasty. 150418
