    This is Eustace the Monk, a Belgian Dubbel manufactured by Brothers Craft Brewing of Williamsburg, Virginia, USA. What is not obvious from the name nor the label on the bottle is that 'Eustace the Monk' was a pirate! I had never heard of him before until his name appeared on a British t.v. quiz show called 'Pointless'.

    A very interesting find and article Dave. I had never heard of him either.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
