Het Kapittel Watou Abt

Brewed by Van Eecke
Style: Abt/Quadrupel
Poperinge-Watou, Belgium

bottle at Delirium in Brussels - Pours hazy golden with a one finger head that leaves some lacing. It has a mild, lightly fruity malt aroma. The flavor is very nicely balanced with good malt sweetness and mild hops. It’s medium bodied and sure is easy to drink for a 10.5% abv Abt ale. It’s either a tripel or a quad and there can be a thin line between the two, but at any rate, it’s an enjoyable brew though not quite up to the extremely high ratings I often give abt/quad brews.
