About the beer

Westmalle Dubbel is one of Belgium's most iconic Trappist beers, with roots dating back to 1926, when the monks of the Abbey of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart of Westmalle decided to adjust the original recipe, doubling the ingredients and creating a more robust and rich beer. This style, known as Dubbel, is distinguished by its deep ruby-brown color and its 7% ABV alcohol content, which gives it a full-bodied and complex character.

Produced according to the principles of the Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance, which follows the motto "Ora et Labora" (Pray and Work), this beer reflects the dedication and artisanal care of the Trappist monks. Like other Trappist beers, Westmalle Dubbel is bottle-conditioned, meaning its aroma and flavor continue to evolve after bottling, making each bottle unique.

The sensory profile of this beer is marked by fruity aromas, with notes of ripe banana, complemented by nuances of caramel from the malt. On the palate, it reveals itself to be rich and balanced, with a pleasant malty touch and a long, dry finish that lingers on the palate. To ensure the best tasting experience, the monks recommend storing the bottles upright and pouring the beer slowly, leaving about 1 cm of liquid in the bottle to prevent the yeast from entering the glass. The yeast, rich in vitamin B, can be consumed separately, a common practice among the monks themselves.

Westmalle Dubbel is a true benchmark in the world of Trappist beers, making it ideal for pairing with charcuterie and soft-ripened or washed-rind cheeses, further enhancing its unique flavors. A celebration of Belgian tradition and brewing art, this beer is an invitation to discover the richness and care that characterize Trappist creations.
