De Ranke Guldenberg Belgian Strong Ale

Country: Belgium

Brewery: Brouwerij De Ranke

Style: Belgian Strong Ale

Format: 330ml Bottle

ABV: 8.5%

A strong blonde ale of about 8.5% alc. by volume that claims vaguely to be an “abbey” beer, Guldenberg bears no resemblance whatsoever to any Tripel you may have sampled, except in colour perhaps. It is very hoppy and malty (though not quite as assertive as De Ranke's XX Bitter). Made in small batches only on the weekends, they are quickly gaining a reputation as the best specialty beers of Belgium.
