A selection of 24 Belgian beers, covering all of the main Belgian styles of beer. Contains:
Barbar (Strong Golden Ale, 33cl, 8.0%abv) Belgian golden ale spiced with honey. Has a dry tangy finish and fizz quite unlike other honey beers, which are normally sweeter and cloying.
Scaldis (Bush) Beer (Strong Golden Ale, 25cl, 12.0%abv) The strongest of the Belgian beers. A true strong ale, copper coloured, malty, and nicely dry. Matured for at least 3 months, this is a superb quality beer, and real dynamite.
Chimay Red (Trappist Ale, 33cl 7.0%abv) The best known of the Trappist Ales, first brewed in 1861. The Red is a beer to be savoured, dark red and full bodied. Rich fruity aroma. Good with food, particularly game.
Grimbergen Dubbel (Abbey Ale, 33cl, 6.5%abv) Soft, dark, creamy and richly medium bodied. Sweet, even slightly cloying but cream foam lasts. A mellow delight that is easy to drink.
Brugs Tripel 33cl 8.2% ABV Complex and malty tripel, very aromatic, with lots of spice on the nose and in the long finish.
Judas (Strong Golden Ale, 33cl, 8.5%abv) A superb golden ale from the Maes brewery. Clear gold, strong complex flavours with a dry aftertaste. Not too heavy in body and quite lively.
Palm 33cl 5.2% ABV Mid-coppery in colour, with a noticeably malty nose and palate. A classic Belgian ale.
Watou Wit 25cl 5.0% ABV An Artisanal wheat beer. A delicious full-flavoured wheat beer from the St Bernardus brewery. Full-bodied, robust and lemony
Duvel (Strong Golden Ale, 33cl, 8.5% abv) Probably the worlds greatest beer. Complex brewing and blending processes produce this brilliant brew. Looks like a lager, very lively, but is a top fermented, malty hoppy beer ... nice and dry. Chill it!
Vedett, a blond, light, well hopped premium beer with 5.2% alcohol content, is the cult Duvel Moortgat beer today
Leffe Blonde (Abbey Ale, 33cl, 6.5%abv) A classic strong golden yellow beer in the Abbey style
Leffe Bruin (Abbey Ale, 33cl, 6.5%abv) Rich smokey aroma. A very dark brown ale. Strong sweet taste with hints of burnt malt. Full bodied. Leaves a pronounced bitter aftertaste. Another classic from Leffe.
Brugse Zot 33cl 6% abv Brugse Zot is a golden blond beer with a rich froth and a fruity flavouring.
Jupiler (Blonde 25cl 5.2% ) Lovely quality Belgian pilsner - light and clean, with a softly malty body and a dry finish.
Timmermans Framboise 25cl 4.0% Good quality commercial raspberry lambic. Fairly dry finish makes it quite moreish
Lindemans Cassis (Fruit Beer, 37.5cl 3.5%abv) Good quality Blackcurrant lambic.
Rodenbach Ordinare (Sour Red, 25cl, 5.0%abv) One of the worlds' most distinctive beers, aged in oak casks to give an intense sharpness. Definitely one for the connoisseur.
Duchesse de Bourgoyne 25cl 6.2% ABV Complex red ale, sour and fruity, with a disitinctive mineral edge. An excellent aperifit or thirst quencher on a hot day
Kwak (Speciality Ale, 33cl, 8.0%abv) Served in a strange glass with no base (like a small yard of ale glass). This is a top fermented garnet coloured brew. Notable for a liquorice aroma and taste.
Liefmans Cru (Fruit Beer, 37.5cl, 6.o%abv) Chewy and tart. A most incredible beer from the famous Liefmans brewery. A beautifully refreshing drink with strong fruit flavour. Serve cool.
Maresdsous 8 (Abbey Ale, 33cl 8.0%abv) Bottle conditioned Abbey ale. Sweet with deep tawny colour
Trappiste Rochefort 10 (Trappist Ale, 33cl, 11.3%abv) Very strong Trappist Ale, with a dense head and deep claret colour, full body. Spicy, earthy palate, this beer is a natural accompaniment with the darkest of Belgian chocolate.
Westmalle Triple (Trappist Ale, 33cl, 9.0%abv) A world famous beer. The Westmalle Tripel has a thick white head, strong herbal aroma and a delectate hop taste. Bottle fermented and quite potent. Goes well with asparagus.
Gordons Scotch Ale 33cl 8.6% ABV Deep, ruddy, full-flavoured ale, full malt aroma and a sweetish, winey finish. From time to time some beers may be out of stock we will in this case replace with a similar beer of equal or greater value
