Tynt Meadow English Trappist Ale


Tynt Meadow English Trappist Ale...$5.99 / 11.2oz bottle
7.4% ABV
"Beer should be liquid bread, not coloured water." - Belgian Trappist Saying

We’re happy to share the work of our hands with you. We’re proud of the ale we’ve made, and have made it with joy. We hope you enjoy it. Despite living a life apart, monks are open to the world. We carry the world’s anxieties and hopes in our prayers. We’re always glad to welcome guests who turn up on our doorstep.

The monks of old had a saying: Patet porta, cor magis. ‘The door is open, the heart even more so.’ By inviting you to taste Tynt Meadow, we offer you a taste of our life.

The Beer:  Trappist beers tend to be named after the place in which the monastery is situated. We’ve called ours ‘Tynt Meadow’, to honour the link with the plot of land on which monastic life was refounded here in the Midlands almost two centuries ago. Being part of the great Trappist tradition, we’ve chosen to produce a strong dark ale, but one with a clearly English character.

Tynt Meadow is mahogany-coloured, with a subtle, warm red hue, and a lasting beige head. Its aroma carries hints of dark chocolate, liquorice, and rich fruit flavours. The beer is full-bodied, gently balancing the taste of dark chocolate, pepper, and fig. It leaves a warm and dry finish on the palate.
