Grimbergen Dubbel - delivery worldwide - is a Belgian Abbaye beer brewed by the Alken-Maes brewery in partnership with Grimbergen Abbey, north of Brussels. Brown with red highlights, Grimbergen Double is a top-fermented beer, brewed using twice as much malt as its blonde sister giving it its name and dark colour.
Brewed by Alken-Maes for the Grimbergen abbey, this is a double dark beer, whose appearance and taste are a close approximation of an English brown ale. Rich ruby-brown colour, with an aroma comprising equal proportions of hops and something like fermenting marrow. It is sweet, lively on the tongue and easier to drink than its strength would suggest (which is considerably in excess of your average brown ale). The aftertaste is a lingering, mild malty flavour. Clear dark ruby, almost a burgundy appearance, with a large-bubbled sandy head which subsides into a frothy layer with a few bubbles peaking through. Nose has some gingerbread spiced cherries, nice roasted strawberries and cherries in the flavor as well, with a big emphasis on apple cider. Peppy finish, finishes like apple juice.
