Maredsous 8
Price: Not sold by PolyBEER
Country: Belgium
Brewery: Brouwerij Duvel Moortgat
Alcohol: 8.00  %
Type: Ale, Bruin, Double, Abbey
Accessory:  Maredsous 33cl
A classic abbey dubbel; with elegant sweetness, lightly caramelized flavor, translucent tawny-brown body, luscious head, and floral bouquet. A delicate balance between malts and hops gives way to hints of toffee and chocolate in the finish. Its velvety smoothness belies the 8% alcohol content.

This ale can be stored upright for up to three years, in a dark, cool place at 42-50° F. This keeps the lees (or yeast) settled in the bottle. The yeast keeps the beer alive and protects it from ageing. You can drink the beer later: it will just become sweeter and feel denser in the mouth, much like an old port.

Brugse Zot blond from Brewery De Halve Maan is available in the Beer Store
