There is a good reason why the phoenix is the symbol of the Grimbergen Abbey. Fire causes chaos and destruction, but also brings warmth and protection. It is a sign of life.
Ignis Quadruple is inspired by the willpower of the fathers who rebuilt the abbey after a devastating fire. Like the abbey, the beer is a symbol of the light that still burns brightly after all these years.
Ignis means fire in Latin.
Malt smoked on beech wood gives Ignis Quadruple a delicious, fiery quality. The combination of smoky notes and the typical spicy notes of the Grimbergen beers gives a strong, warming brew.
The taste is intense. But also hospitable and pleasant. Touches of caramelized sugars combined with pleasant notes of dried, ripe fruit such as raisin, plum and fig, provide a delicate, subtle sweetness on the palate.
