Known for a full range of styles

Maredsous Abbey was founded in 1872 by Benedictine monks in the Molignée valley, and its beers stand in that tradition: Blonde, Brune and Triple, each refermented in the bottle and aged for two months in the cellar. The Extra is poured only on tap at the abbey site, where Duvel-Moortgat's brewers also make seasonal beers in limited volumes that can only be tasted and bought on site.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
