Petrus Dubbel: The Key to Heavenly Enjoyment
Experience the pinnacle of Belgian brewing tradition with Petrus Dubbel. Produced by the historic De Brabandere Brewery, this beer was originally named by Albert De Brabandere as a tribute to St. Petrus - the gatekeeper of heaven - to ensure his own access to the afterlife in advance.
Flavour Profile & Craftsmanship

- Bittersweet Balance: A new recipe follows the latest trends towards a bittersweet profile, making the beer exceptionally full-flavoured yet easy to drink.
- High Fermentation: This dark, clear ale is brewed using traditional top-fermentation techniques to ensure premium quality.
