Saint Bernard Beer!!!

OMG!  This is the COOLEST beer ever!  Bon Securs is brewed made by Brasserie Caulier in Belgium and every bottle has a Saint Bernard on it. Of course they dont sell it here in the US, believe me, I investigated.

The Saint in their advertising looks like my Brutus!  Maybe Brutus and Rufus can have their own beer……. hehehe

“In 1628, the monks founded a monastery at Brigittines Péruwelz. The brewmaster was called the father Baudelot.

Every Sunday, the good Father Baudelot celebrate the Office in the Chapel of Our Lady of inter-wood in the village of Bonsecours. It was built by loggers in honor of the Virgin Mary who had miraculously preserved from the plague.

The story goes that on his way home, the father always used to stop in some small taverns … to enjoy his favorite beverage. He spent long convivial evenings listening to the pilgrims.

These evenings were well watered so it was finally his Saint Bernard bringing him back in the early hours on the road to the Abbey …

So in tribute to the father Baudelot we have taken the tradition of monks Brigittines, and we wanted to highlight the Saint Bernard.”
