I was forged in fire and tempered in time — the darker, deeper side of Grimbergen’s eternal flame. I’m the Double Ambrée, a Dubbel-style ale born of roasted malts, slow caramelisation, and centuries of monastic mastery. My amber hue glows like stained glass catching the last light of evening vespers, hinting at the richness that awaits within.
Every sip of me is a bittersweet journey. I lead with notes of caramelised sugar, dried plums, and a whisper of roasted barley, while fresh hops lend just enough bite to balance my indulgence. Full-bodied and contemplative, I’m a beer for slow moments — for firelit meals, thoughtful conversation, and soul-warming stews.
My roots stretch back to the Abbey of Grimbergen, where resilience is religion and brewing is an act of devotion. Pair me with roasted meats, savoury sauces, or any dish that carries the same dark, sweet, and spiced complexity I do. I don’t just accompany your meal — I elevate it, with every silky, amber sip.

Grimbergen Brewery was first established almost 900 years ago and has become one of Belgium's most famous and historical abbey breweries today. Having survived numerous wars and invasions, the Fathers of Grimbergen adopted a phoenix as their emblem along with a motto, “ardet nec consumitur” - which means “burned, but not destroyed”. The tenacious brewery continues to brew award-winning Belgian-style beers by combining its time-old brewing traditions with new and innovative brewing techniques!
