Description
Cardeña Quadrupel Beer is a gem in the Spanish brewing scene, the brewery's third creation after the Tripel and the Dubbel. Top-fermented and bottle-conditioned, this robust and complex beer draws inspiration from classic Belgian and Dutch Trappist ales. Brewed since September 2023 under the supervision of the monks of the Cardeña Monastery in Burgos, it holds the title of the first Spanish beer with a Trappist designation, although it does not bear the official logo as it is produced outside the monastic walls. Its silky and fruity flavor makes every sip a unique experience, perfect for lovers of quality and brewing tradition.
