 Saint
Sixtus monastery in Flanders have been producing a rich, dark-brown,
beer renowned for its exceptional flavour and strength. But an unexpected
misfortune has befallen this reclusive community of 26 Cistercians: their
beer has been named the best in the world.
So great is demand that stocks are exhausted and sales have been stopped.
As hits on the monastery website reach 2,000 a day, Saint Sixtus has been
deluged with requests for media interviews from the US to Bulgaria.
Homer voice in back of mind: "Hmmmmm, beer….."
