As it does every year at this time, the Brasserie de l’Abbaye du Val-Dieu is adding two new exceptional cuvées to its Excellence range. This edition features Calvados barrels from Maison Père Magloire and Côte-Rôtie barrels, chosen to enhance the richness and complexity of our Val-Dieu Triple.

The concept behind our barrel-aged beers is based on a bold and unexpected marriage between two worlds that are polar opposites. First, there is a beer brewed traditionally in the heart of the Abbey, in accordance with monastic tradition.

Then, it is aged in genuine barrels that have contained exceptional spirits and wines from all over the world, for a year in the Abbey’s cellars. A true brewing expertise that bears the traces of a heritage that transcends borders.

This unique ageing process gives each edition a distinctive character. The noble aromas of the barrel subtly infuse the beer, giving it depth and complexity: woody, vanilla, spicy or fruity notes depending on the origin of the barrel. A constantly evolving aromatic palette that transforms each sip into a unique sensory experience.

Each vintage in the Excellence range is available in a limited, numbered edition, like a liquid work of art.

It embodies the meeting of brewing heritage, the patience of time and the modernity of innovation. More than just a beer, it is an experience.

The Val-Dieu Excellence Range stands out as the ultimate expression of brewing luxury. To celebrate this excellence, we have designed two exceptional cases, crafted from local wood.

Available in a two-bottle version, or one bottle accompanied by two glasses, these cases combine elegance, authenticity and sustainability.

Designed as truly prestigious items, they enhance the art of tasting and are naturally suited to the most thoughtful gifts. An exceptional gift, to give or to treat yourself, to share the spirit of Val-Dieu in all its nobility.

Want to try one of these brewing treasures? Don’t wait too long: the gems of the Excellence range are distinguished by their rarity.
Produced in limited, numbered editions, each bottle embodies a unique value, reflecting the expertise and passion of Val-Dieu.

Excellence beers are available in specialist drinks shops and wine merchants, Delhaize and Intermarché, or directly from the Abbey shop, open every day from 10am to 6pm, including public holidays.
