The world is facing major challenges. This affects every single one of us, us as a society, and us as a company. We are aware that online retail entails an increased carbon footprint. With every step and every bit of growth that is possible thanks to you as part of our amazing craft beer community, we also want to give something back. We have taken several measures to save as much CO2 as possible, offset our emissions , and even neutralize additional CO2 .
Shipping at Beer Belly Cologne is climate neutral! We are a partner of "Planet" and therefore automatically offset the CO2 emissions generated during the individual shipping of our packages.
But that's not all. For every order you place with Beer Belly Cologne, the Eden Reforestation Project plants a tree, and together we improve our carbon footprint. Learn more about the project here . Our Impact Report provides transparent updates on our progress.
We collect all our beers directly from regional breweries. Short and direct routes are good for the beer and the environment.
We also receive beer deliveries by mail. We reuse the cardboard boxes provided by the breweries to send you the beer. So don't be surprised if you receive a used, not new, box.
To save resources, especially for our shipping partners, we pack your order in the smallest possible packaging size.
"A Belgian Dubbel is typically a top-fermented, bottle-conditioned brown beer with approximately 7% alcohol by volume."
The beer originates from the Trappist brewing tradition and comes from the Westmalle Trappist monastery. Unlike regular "everyday beer," Dubbel was brewed darker and stronger. Officially introduced in 1926, "Dubbel Bruin" is a reddish-brown, top-fermented beer brewed with pale malts and sugar syrup. The aforementioned sugar syrup gives Dubbel its aromas of dried fruit and burnt sugar, as well as its dark color. All Dubbel beers are malty, top-fermented, and have a fairly dry finish. Due to bottle fermentation, they have a pleasant effervescence. Filtered versions are also available, in which, naturally, bottle fermentation is omitted.
Normally, it's a malty, bread-like, and creamy beer whose caramel sweetness is further enhanced by dark rock candy. Dried fruit and a light hop note round out the superb whole.
