Beers similar to Stjernebryg

Belgian Strong Dark·Denmark·8.5% ABV·One of 25 Belgian Strong Darks in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Stjernebryg's malty and rich character. Dark and glittering like starry winter nights, this heavyweight draws its depth from the sweetness of the malt and the bitterness of the hops, with hints of star anise and coriander. It is brewed in the manner of the monks' Trappist beers on Abbey Ale yeast, which plays beautifully against the depth of the malt.
