Belgian Strong Pale Abbey Ale
Brewed by: Brasserie St. Feuillien
Country: Belgium
Style: Belgian Strong Pale Ale
ABV: 9.5%
Ratebeer.com rating: 91
BeerAdvocate.com rating: 88
St. Feuillien Grand Cru is pale bright gold in color, with a full, dense, brilliantly white head of foam. Its delicate aroma is full of subtle hops and fruit (think juicy pears and white grapes) with a backdrop of pale grainy malt and honey.
Grand Cru is very dry on the palate, firm in body and well-attenuated with a pleasant fruity bitterness and a wonderful toasted malt character. Fresh tasting, light, and drinkable, its 9.5% ABV is very well disguised. 11.2 oz bottle
Brewery Information:
Brasserie St. Feuillien ("Foo-Yen") had its start in the 7th century, when an Irish monk named Foylan or Foillan—a name which later was translated into the more French "Feuillien"—was killed in the village of Le Roeulx. A chapel was built in his honor, which, over time, became the Abbey St. Feuillien du Roeulx. The abbey featured a brewery to support itself, but was destroyed in the French Revolution. In 1873 the Friart family resumed brewing operations and to this day a portion of the proceeds is donated to charitable causes around the world, making St. Feuillien one of Belgium's oldest and most authentic Abbey Ales.
