Abbey Ale honors the ancient tradition of monks who perfected the art of brewing beer to support the monastery and the brothers with their "liquid bread'. We offer up our support and thank them with a 25 cent donation to St. Joseph's Abbey with every bottle of this heavenly brew. Dark in amber color, the aroma of caramel, fruits and cloves invites you to contemplate the creamy head of this "dubbel' or double ale. Abita Abbey Ale is a malty brew, top-fermented and bottle aged to rapturous perfection.
