La Moneuse is named for A.J. Moneuse, a famous local bandit and gang leader in the 1700s, famous for holding victims’ feet to the fire to find out where their money was hidden, and an ancestor of the brewers family.

The original La Moneuse is a classic saison beer by virtue of its strength and its earthy, aged quality. It has a hardy, semi-dry malt character fresh, but not overpowering hoppiness, abundant yeasty, fruity flavours and a strong but pleasant and enticing mustiness. Among Belgiums saisons, La Moneuse sits with Saison Dupont on the opposite end of the spectrum from the quirky, thin, fruity varieties. This is a Triple 10% version of the original.
