About this beer

St. Bernardus High Gravity is a Belgian Strong Dark Ale boasting an ABV of 8.5%. Brewed with pale malt, candy sugar, and hops, this beer showcases a deep reddish-brown hue with a complex flavor profile. Notes of dark fruit – raisin and fig – are prominent, complemented by hints of caramel and a subtle spice character from the fermentation process. The full body and rich maltiness are balanced by a restrained hop bitterness, leading to a warming, slightly sweet finish.

The label features a striking, minimalist design: a stark black background is broken by a vertically oriented, flowing red and white graphic, reminiscent of abstracted flame or ribbon shapes, topped with the embossed “St. Bernardus” logo in gold. Supporting the imagery is bold, clean text proclaiming “HIGH GRAVITY MALT LIQUOR.” A somewhat lengthy cautionary notice regarding responsible drinking is printed along the side.
