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.

Aroma of pale malt, some fruits, some yeast, grass, hops. Flavour is moderate sweet with a moderate tot medium bitter finish. Mouthfeel is good and the beer looks apetizing when poured. Aroma is not very distinctive, but I liked the flavour.

Ljust halmgul klar vätska med vitt fluffigt och finbubbligt skumlock. Arom av jäst, ljust bröd och med inslag av torkar gräs. Avslutningsvis anas en liten doft av druvor. Smaken beskrivs som maltig kropp blandat med gräs. Beskan går mot gräsigt hö. Medelfyllig med låg eldighet och kort eftersmak.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is spicy yeast with notes of grassy hop and pale malt. Lightly soapy and fruity. Mild bitter with a modest sweetness, light to medium body. Decent.
