For this sweet flavoured and dark brown beer,we use aromatic malt (for the dark colour). For abbey beer, Kapittel Pater has rather low abv (6%). The hop we use is Poperingse hop which has only a light bitter taste.

Dark brown, near black colored. Medium sized light brown head. Aroma is rich with pretty unique, saft-like touch. Fruits, currant, spices and sweetness there too. Medium bodied. Flavor is overly sweet with safty tones and caramel. Some unclean tones there too, maybe the tab... Mild licorice and wine in aftertaste.

Bottle. Deep reddish colour. Small head. Malt, yeast and spice in nose. Taste is way too sweet and cloying. This is actually one of the first belgians I’ve had that I didn’t enjoy..

Bottle sampled with Beerded_one. Pours amber\brown with a small off-white head. Aroma of citrus, slight fruit, and caramel malts. The flavor is metallic, bready, sweet, caramel, dull and boring. Drinkable brew, disappointing for Kapittel.

Pours a garnet-hued-honey-colored body, while the finishing yeasts add murk and deepen the color to an amber/brown. Berries evident early in the aroma. Additional metallic notes over toffee and fruity florals with hints of oil-based paint later. Thick-bodied and dry with a fruity persona and a sweet, malty base. Light bitterness in the finish, but the aftertaste is of candy. Satisfying, but you need to be in the mood for a sweet beer.
