The PETRUS Triple and the PETRUS Old Brown Ale are both exceptional and authentic beers, and can be enjoyed year round for your drinking and dining pleasure. During the cold months, however, one more PETRUS joins the selection: the PETRUS Winter Ale. A special brew, offering a 6.5 % Alc. by Vol., with a unique taste that is perfect for winter. This full bodied dark beer is only brewed from September through the end of November. The first containers leave Belgium around half September to arrive in the States around half October. From early November on, start asking your quality beer shops and bar-restaurants for it.
PETRUS Winter Ale comes in kegs, and in gorgeous attractive 750 bottles, ideal for the gift season.
Once you discover PETRUS Winter Ale, it is impossible to imagine the warm glow of a winter evening without Petrus' full and hearty flavor.
On our Belgian Beer tours, we visit the Bavik brewery, creator of the PETRUS beers, every year. All are very impressed by the professionalism and craftsmanship of the brewer and his team, and by the pristine look and perfect organization of the brewery. Being the largest brewer of West Flanders is earned through discipline and absolute quality. The huge wooden vessels, where the Petrus Old Brown lays aging, make quite a statement. I personally suspect some of this Old Brown Ale in the PETRUS Winter Ale. But, how should I know. I can only trust my taste buts. What do you think?
