St. Bernardus Prior 8
MY REVIEW: Very good Belgian abbey ale. Great beer to sip when reading a good book or writing!
Score to my liking on a 1 low-10 high scale: 8
St.Bernardus Prior 8 is a traditional abbey ale brewed in the classic “Dubbel” style of Belgium’s Best Abbey Ales. It has a ruby to purple color, smooth, creamy richness of texture that is almost oily, and a malt-fruit complexity reminiscent of coconut. (8% ABV.)
It finds the perfect balance between sweet, bitter and malty tastes. One of the original recipes from the days of license-brewing for the Trappist monks of Westvleteren.
