Le Bâtard double
Le Bâtard Double at 7.2% is a Belgian double with a fruity aroma and flavour with distinct notes of chocolate. The beer is a collaboration with Jonas Darnell, the creator of Herman Hedning. The label features the two bastards, Herman Hedning dressed up as a monk with hair resembling a President in the West, and the character Grodan (666) who makes a mess of everything he touches. Any resemblance to a presidential election in the West is, according to Jonas, purely coincidental
Klostersystrarnas ale
A Belgian strong amber of 8.4% with lovely notes of caramel from the malt combined with fruitiness and some spiciness from the Belgian yeast. A relatively dry finish.
Pestdoktorn IPA
A 7% Belgian IPA that combines the fruitiness of the Belgian yeast with notes of pine bar, grapefruit and coda from the American hops. A dry finish contributes to an elevated experience of bitterness.
Oberoende belgisk blond
Together with our friends at craft breweries around the country, we each released an independent beer on 7 October 2024. We wanted to showcase the breadth, love and craftsmanship of Swedish independent brewers. Our independent Belgian Blonde at 6.6%, offers a nuanced and spicy flavour with some fruitiness. Well fermented.
Fader rödskäggs XLIV-IPA
A Belgian IPA at 5.6%. It combines the fruitiness and dryness of the Belgian yeast with the grapefruit, pine bar and florality of the American hops. Clear bitterness.

Den vita nunnan
A Belgian wit (4,5%) spiced with orange peel and coriander seeds. Together with a high level of carbonation, you are offered a fresh tasing experience with aroma and tase of citrus, spiciness and some maltiness
Vreta kloster matersbier
A Belgian single/enkel/patersbier at 5% with a light body that is combined with clear spiciness, some fruitiness and a lovely finishing bitterness. High level of carbonation in combination with being well attenuated contributes to a fresh finish. A type of beer that is still brewed at Trappist abbeys for the monks’ own consumption.
Vreta kloster special
A beer inspired by the Spéciale Belge beer style that saw the light of day in 1905. In our interpretation of the beer style, we offer a 5.8% beer where the fruitiness and spiciness produced by the Belgian yeast is combined with light notes of caramel from the malt. High level of carbonation contributes to a fresh finish.
Den blonda nunnan
A Belgian blonde of 6.8% spiced with orange peel and licorice root. The beer has a medium body. Initial taste of light maltiness quickly turns into lovely fruitiness with clear notes of citrus. High level of carbonation combined with being well attenuated offers a refreshing and dry finish.
Le Monde de la Bière
A traditional Belgian Saison at 6.2%. The yeast contributes to lovely notes of fruit and spiciness. The fruitiness is further enhanced by using American hops at the end of brewing. A well attenuated beer with a dry mouthfeel, which makes the beer excellent for food pairing.
Nunnans skördeöl
A Belgian Double-Saison of 7.4% with medium body, clear fruitiness and spiciness. Could be described as “funky” with mild acicity. Overall a very well balanced beer with a high level of carbonation and a dry finish
St. Helena
A Belgian strong amber ale of 8.8%. Clear notes of caramel are combined with distinct fruitiness and some spiciness. Low levels of hops contribute to the beer being perceived as somewhat sweet. High level of carbonation contributes to a fresh finish.
Vreta kloster trippel
A Belgian triple of 9.2% with a medium body that offers clear fruitiness, some spiciness, and slight sweet maltiness. A light note of alcohol shines through as befits this style of beer. A slightly higher level of added hops contributes to medium bitterness.
Abbedissan 12
A Belgian dark strong ale, sometimes referred to as quadruple, at 10%. The high level of added dark candy sugar contributes to the color, aroma and taste of the beer. Complex notes of dried fruit, light spiciness, and burnt sugar. Can be stored with advantage for many years.
