The Story Behind The Bottle
Habits Bottle Shop
St. Bernardus Abt 12 is the flagship beer from St. Bernardus Brewery in Watou, Belgium, and one of the most celebrated examples of the Belgian quadrupel style anywhere in the world. Brewed with the brewery's signature yeast strain, Abt 12 pours a deep mahogany brown and delivers a complex aroma of dark fruit, caramel, and warming spice.
On the palate, expect layers of raisin, dried plum, brown sugar, and a touch of clove, all wrapped in a rich, full body with a warming alcohol presence typical of the quad style. The finish is long, smooth, and slightly sweet, making this a beer built for slow sipping rather than quick drinking.
Abt 12 is best served slightly warmer than fridge-cold in a tulip or chalice glass, which helps release its full range of aromatics. Pair it with aged cheeses, roasted duck, dark chocolate, or a rich stew for a classic Belgian-style match.
If you're building a serious Belgian beer collection or just want to try one of the style's benchmark examples, order St. Bernardus Abt 12 online at Habits Bottle Shop.
