Abbaye des Rocs (9% alcohol vol.) is a pure malt beer, with no added sugar.
The entire range of tastes is directly linked to the double fermentation, the precise quantities of malts (7 types) as well as the mixtures of three kinds of hops (Belgian, German and Czech). Its colour is a striking deep and majestic red. Its taste is rich and full of subtlety. It is tasted like a red wine with which it shares the ruby colour without having the tannin.
It develops a strong sweet smell. It confirms the initial impression in the first mouthful, with a sharp body that is balanced with a certain
fruitiness. It frees itself on the palate and develops an impressive depth of taste. Some traces of burnt wood are detectable, but never scorched even if it contains this kind of malt. The foretaste is very prolonged because of its rich and unctuous development throughout the mouth. The bitter and sugar tendencies (even though there is no sugar in its composition) compete and come back together to the taster’s great satisfaction. It is a deep, mystic and extremely mature beer to be classed among the great products of our soil.
Mongozo has developed a gluten-free lager, making it possible for people on
a gluten-free diet to drink beer.The brewing process for obtaining a gluten-free beer can vary, and in the
case of Mongozo Premium Pilsner it involves the gluten being removed from
the beer. This is an innovative technique which results in the product
tasting just like a normal lager. A renowned laboratory checks each batch
of beer brewed for the presence of gluten. The beer is then only sold if
less than 10 ppm of gluten is detected and it can therefore be labelled as
gluten-free.A gluten free beer suitable for coeliacs.
Hi, just letting you know that The Blackfriars Tavern have a cask of Old Chimneys Stout ABV 10% available on gravity now!
If you have never tried Good King Henry, then you should have at least heard of its reputation. Good King Henry is a multi-award winning imperial stout, usually in the 9% range and the bottled version, Good King Henry Special Reserve, has been England’s highest rated beer on rating website ratebeer.com for eight years. That is impressive.
Alan Thomson ‘officially’ retired from brewing and closed down Old Chimneys Brewery back in March, but has continued with brewing at Grain. Alan turned the volume up a bit to hit double figures, and the new Good King Henry is now at 10% alcohol by volume.
Volunteers serving at the Norwich Beer Festival were enthusiastically recommending that we try it.
