Belgian monks have revived a medieval beer recipe last brewed in the 18th century.
The Order of Canons Regular of Premontre at Grimbergen Abbey in Belgium have begun brewing the ale again after rediscovering the original 12th-century recipe and methods in their archives.
But be careful if you get to try the new ancient brew - at 10.8 per cent alcohol content it's likely to blow your cassock off.

Oregon has a lot of great craft breweries. I select my beer by first looking for the maximum alcohol contents and then narrow it down between an IPA or a Porter. I can usually find several at 9%-11%.

Doesn’t fermentation stop at about 15%?
