Beer recipe - Belgian Dubbel
ABV 6.8% | Color 50 EBC | Bitterness* 20 IBU |
Description
Beer of moderate alcohol level, amber-copper colour, with an aromatic profile and complexity of taste. One of the most produced styles by Trappist abbeys in Belgium. This recipe presents complex caramel and light roasted malt notes due to the extensive use of special malts, accentuated sweetness characteristic of the addition of Belgian Candy Sugar and fruity notes from the esters produced by the Belgian yeast during fermentation. Great beer to be enjoyed on cold days.
*The bitterness depends on the alpha acid content of hops, boiling conditions and other parameters.
