About the Beer:

Grotten Brown Ale
Michael Jackson's First Ever
BEER OF THE YEAR

Many years ago, Belgian brewing legend Pierre Celis dreamt of a beer that would be aged like fine wine before release. The fruition of that dream is Grottenbier Brune, called simply Grotten in the United States.

Brewed at the superb Brouwerij St. Bernardus in Watou, Belgium, Grottenbier is bottled and then aged in the Kanne Caverns, a mammoth limestone cave formation in northern Belgium. While aging far underground, Grotten Brown takes on a smooth, mellow, rich flavor. The constant temperature and humidity of the caverns makes for an ideal aging environment, and is partly responsible for Grotten Browns unique flavor and almost fluffy, delicate mouthfeel.

It is brewed with some ingredients that Celis never divulges. Instead, when asked what makes this beer so special, he replies “Something nobody else uses in a beer. I can tell you I found it in Austin, Texas and it grows all over the place there. It is a weed.” Grottenbier is bottle conditioned for maximum flavor and shelf life.
