#59 | St. Bernardus | ABT 12

From the St. Bernardus website:(http://www.sintbernardus.be/en/beers.html#abt12):

"The absolute top quality in the hierarchy of the St. Bernardus beers. It is also the beer with the highest alcohol content (10.50 %).

A dark ivory coloured beer with a high fermentation.
The show piece of the brewery.

Thanks to its soft and unconditionally genuine aroma, the beer can be smoothly tasted.

The Abt has a very fruity flavour. "
