Floreffe Triple owes its name to its high density and strong taste. The
splendid mixture between bitterness and caramel characterises this beer.

therefore be slightly cloudy if served cold. As the monks’ recipe
specifies, it is refermented in the bottle with yeast and sugar.As a terrible punishment, any monk arriving too late for prayers or in the
refectory would not get his beer entitlement.
