Associated Venue: De Achelse Kluis
Established in 1850
In 2021 verloor de brouwerij het ATP-logo, omdat er geen trappisten-monniken meer verbleven in de abdij. De productie van het bier gebeurde sindsdien onder toezicht van de abdij van Westmallle. In 2023 werd de abdij verkocht aan privéinvesteerders en werd de afhankelijkheid van de trappistenabdij van Westmalle verbroken.

0.75 l bottle from 'Mr. Hop', best before October 2025, cellared for almost a year. Almost clear, very dark ruby with a large, foamy, almost stable, light beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently yeasty-spicy and slightly fruity aroma of caramel, raisins, cocoa and some clove. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, rather spicy, quite yeasty, a little roasty and a bit fruity taste of caramel, cocoa, coconut, licorice root, anise, cinnamon and some raisins, followed by a medium long, moderately bitter finish. Medium to full body, quite effervescent mouthfeel, average to lively carbonation. Solid Belgian dark ale, quite spicy but still balanced, fits definitely well into the pre-Christmas season.
