Source The old Brewery
This weekend I felt like having a nice triple beer, my choice fell on the Leffe Tripel. I often drink beers from Leffe but the tripel is still my favorite (by the way in general I often find the tripel beers the tastiest, they are a bit heavier).
Leffe is a Belgian Abbey beer that was previously brewed by the Norbertines of the Abbey of Leffe and goes back (I looked it up) to 1240. Unfortunately, Abbey beers in original breweries are becoming increasingly scarce and are mainly bought up by the large breweries. For example, Leffe has been taken over by Brouwerij Artois, which is now part of AB InBev, a global brewery organization with many brands. I personally think that is a shame, it becomes so impersonal, but I understand it if you want a beer to be able to maintain its right to exist.
By the way, there are a lot of delicious beers coming from Belgium, I always want to go to the brewery of La Chouffe, the gnome beer :) . but anyway, I still want so much :)
Have a nice evening and cheers,
Peter
