Commercial Description:
Editor's note: Brewed by Ølfabrikken at Het Anker, Mechelen, Belgium.

Ølfabrikken Abbey Ale is our interpretation of the dark and strong ales brewed in the Belgian monasteries. A more than hundred year old yeast strain provides the beer with notes of raisins and prunes supplemented by a discrete spicy aroma from coriander. The flavor is big and vinous and dominated by caramel. Enjoy it with braised meat, game and ripe cheese. Of course unpasteurized, unfiltered and refermented in the bottle.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a fast disapperaing brown head with sediment floating around. The aroma is sweet mlaty with strong notes of caramel, medium notes of yeast, and lesser notes of alcohol. The flavor is sweet mlaty with strong notes of alcohol, combined with notes of caramel, spices, brown sugar, and yeast.

Bottled at Københavnske Øldage. Muddy amber, airy head. Almondy caramel aroma. Sweet and softly malty with evident Belgian style yeast character. Near full bodied. Vinous and viscous with cherries, biscuits and some banana. Low bitterness. Complex, powerful and really good!

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of Grovlam. Pours a hazy, orangey brown with a dense, off-white head leaving some lacework. Complex, fruity and vinous nose. Quite full in body full of sweetish, roasted malt and again this delicate vinous fruitiness - some marzipan also. Excellent. 090507
