Can age. Will soften and gain a honeyed depth, though it is lovely fresh too.

PERFECT PAIRING

"Rich creamy cheeses like Délice de Bourgogne or poultry in cream sauce match its texture."

Cook this: creamy brie or fresh chevre on toast, a wedge of aged abbey cheese (Chimay, Orval), or vol-au-vent (chicken in puff pastry).

Story & Heritage

ABOUT THIS BEER

Brewed by Brasserie Caulier in Péruwelz, Hainaut, and famously made only once a month, on the night of the full moon, echoing the lunar calendar medieval monks followed. Each bottle is marked with the moon under which it was brewed.

On the Tripel style, Strong, golden-colored ale. Complex spiciness, fruity esters (banana, orange), and a sweet malt backbone masked by high carbonation and a dry finish.

THE MONK'S NOTE

Pour it into a tulip, served around 8-12°C, and let its aromatics open before the first sip. Lovely now, though a year or two will only soften and deepen it.
