It is a blond abbey beer, grading at 7% vol alc. Golden color, clear, a sharp nose, vivacious and nervous. On the palate, a round attack, balanced and full. In the middle, a floral mouth, elegant and straightforward. A nice presence of bitterness and a noble finish. The Saint Martin Blonde is brewed by the Brunehaut brewery.

In XIth century Tournay, when the city only had barely 10,000 inhabitants, a cannon called Odon d'Orléans was unable to find a place for silent prayer and meditation. So he founded a new place to live and pray: St Martin's Abbey. In 1096, Bishop Radbot granted the monks of St Martin's the right to brew, a valuable privilege granted by King Childeric. And that is all to the good as in a time when plague and cholera reigned, people already knew that it was wiser to drink beer than water. The recipes of St Martin's beers have remained a secret.
