Commercial Description:
In the small village of Meer, north of the city of Antwerp, there used to be an abbey which was famous for its beer named St. Paul. During the French Revolution, the abbey was destroyed and so it was said-one father named Paul, rescued the secret recipes to brew the abbey beer and trust them onto the local Sterkens family, at that time a renowned brewer family. The Sterkens family had been brewing beer since 1654, and their St. Paul abbey beer is still brewed today, respectfully according to the centuries old tradition.

An amber beer with a beige head. The aroma is primarily sweet with some sour notes - is it the yeast? The flavor is very thin, but what is there is sweet malty with notes of caramel and bread with hints of the alcohol.

33 cL bottle. Pours deep brown, almost black with brown and fast disappearing head. Aroma of fruit, roasted malt (almost orasted coffee), yeast and sweet odour. Flavour is dry to sweet malty. Finish is dried fruits. Softly carbonated.

Bottled. Cloudy dark brown, small beige head. Caramelly nose. Sweet and lightly grassy with spritzy rounded mouthfeel. Medium bodied. Dominted by caramel but with obvious almondy yeast character and notes of orange. Some late resiny bitterness. Not the most remarkable Belgian ale.

Bottle at KØ07. Beautiful, very dark brown colour, small head. Green apple aroma. There is also green apple in the flavour, along with a little spicy liquorice type notes. Seems slightly oxidized. Semi-sweet, well-balanced, but not so exciting.
