De Glazen Toren Lentebier is a special version of their standard Saison d'Erpe-Mere. Traditionally, a lent beer, "lentebier" would have been brewed by monks as a stronger beer to provide extra nutrition during the 40 day Lenten fast. This special Saison-style ale is double hopped in the boil and has a late addition of hop flowers grown locally in the Aalst region of Belgium.
Lentebier pours hazy blond with a lasting white head.
Aromas include spicy floral hops, clove, grass, white pepper, pineapple and mango. Taste follows the nose, with some sweetness balancing the acidity, and a lingering hop finish.
The high level of carbonation is refreshing and lends the beer a very creamy, velvety mouthfeel.
Food Pairings
An ideal pairing for a wide variety of foods; the high carbonation will cut through fat on any rich dish while its lighter flavors will not overwhelm a delicate item.

Delicious
May 7, 2019 | By Pat MThis is by far the best beer I ever drank. I went as far as taking a picture of the bottle so I can remember to reorder it. I even recommended it to my son-in-law who is a beer aficionado.
