Stift Engelszell Gregorius is an impressive Trappist beer that shimmers in the glass in a deep, chestnut-brown colour. Its aroma is dominated by intense herbal and liquorice notes, which are complemented by ripe fruit nuances. The strong malt body unfolds in the first sip and brings out coffee and roasted flavours. Regional honey and Alsatian wine yeast give the beer a harmonious interplay of sweetness and acidity that delights the palate. The warming finish is accompanied by slightly bitter chocolate notes, making Gregorius a complex yet balanced beer.
