Mere sveske-sødme end egentlig maltsødme, slet ikke dårlig

I was expecting more of a Trappist Tripel but it was more of a brown ale..which is nice, but not a fan of. Strong and delicious, if you’re looking for a strong and heavy brown ale.

W aromacie zielone jabłko na średnim poziomie, podobnie miód, prawdopodobnie z utleniania, nuty karmelowe, melasa. W smaku utlenienie, melasa. Generalnie piwo bez charakteru belgijskiego, oprócz wielu wad nic się tu nie dzieję. Duże rozczarowanie

Rare Beer Club monthly. Nice Belgian dark with prominent yeast notes, malty with subtle hop.

2017. Malty, a lot of caramel, fig, and some dark bread. A bit of raw alcohol still. As it warms, less alcohol and more nuttiness and toffee develop. Great with Alpine cheese and Gouda, good with cheddar, less good with brie.

Great head and legs. Dark fruits (currant? raspberries?) in the aftertaste. Boozy and rich. Solid.
