Brouwerij Sint-Bernardus Kombine 2025 Lager - 33 CL

Kombine 2025 is an unfiltered, full-bodied blond beer (6% ABV) with a subtle hop aroma. A first for St. Bernardus, as the brewers have never before brewed a bottom-fermented beer. Furthermore, this beer does not undergo bottle conditioning, which is again a first in our brewing tradition. And as if that weren't challenging enough, the brewers also tasked us with brewing this according to the German Reinheitsgebot! We used Weihenstephan yeast and a mix of hops from both ourselves and Weihenstephan. Connoisseurs will recognize the 'oxymoron' or the apparent contradiction in the beer's style and name. An unfiltered Helles is, by definition, a contradiction. We find this tension incredibly intriguing, as it reflects the duality of our brewery: our beers are iconic and steeped in tradition and authenticity, but the brewers also enjoy pushing boundaries to appeal to the adventurous beer drinker. The visual identity of Kombine 2025 continues the design introduced with Braupakt. The label once again features St. Bernardus and Saint Corbinian, the founder of Weihenstephan. These two iconic figures were brought to life by Belgian illustrator Xavier Truant, who also created the now-famous illustrations for the lift shaft in our brewery in Watou.
