Welbeck Abbey 'Duchess' Belgian Style Strong Blonde Ale 8.4% 330ml

The Duchesses as a collective of women have been highly influential philanthropists, avid collectors, and naturalist. This beer is a homage to all the celebrated women of Welbeck and those that are yet to be discovered. If you look skyward, you will see an enigmatic architectural Duchess portrait dotted around the estate buildings.

This luxurious beer has sweet fig and raisin aromas which dominate initially, followed by a robust, sherry-like richness. Heritage Chevallier malt imparts caramel biscuit tones, and is supported by subtle herbal flavours from Phoenix hops. Fermentation with a classic Abbey yeast gives this beer fruity-ester flavour.
