Brewed at Van Steenberge brewery, Bornem Double is a ‘vivid’ abbey beer. This means that after the first fermentation, the beer continues to evolve during the secondary fermentation, after bottling/ barrelling. This sweet lager, dark brown with burgundy red touches, has a fruity taste and a hoppy aftertaste. Its solid creamy foam collar is the crown on this abbey beer.
Few other double beers reach the level of Bornem Double. This brown lager is often served with meat dishes such as steaks, grilled meat, game animal or even sausages.
Very dark, coffee color - full rich body - staying head - effervescent nose - soft velvet feeling in the mouth - luscious. Malt character with a hoppy aftertouch. Monks used to fast on this type of beer for 40 days! No food, only beer.
