| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 24, 2009 Good beer. Dont know if I would call it a triple but it was tasty. Pours a dark brown with medium white/tan head. Aromas of peat moss, earth and fruit. Flavors of fruit, sweet caramel and hints of chocolate. Try it but dont expect it to be a traditional triple color. BVery (657), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Sep 18, 2009 Bottle. Pours hazy brown, with a beige, frothy head. Frim body with a bit of sedimentation at the bottom of the glass. Aroma of raisins, malt, spice, clove, and a hint of hops. Medium body, with no trace of alcohol. Crisp, clean finish. Fantastic Belgian strong. DeputyAndy (85), New Jersey, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Sep 18, 2009 Pours a deep koka kola brown with a thick mocha head. Very strong nose of thick complex malt-fruit interactions. Sweet, malty flavor with a surprisingly stingy aftertaste- almost reminiscent of worchester(sp?) flavor. Definitely tons of flavor in this beer. Fratto (763), Arlington, Texas, USA

| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Sep 7, 2009 Sweet soft cloudy mouth, makes it really feel like something a King, or an angel, would drink. Pours cloudy dark with a small head. gringo332 (247), Richardson, Texas, USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 26, 2009 Dark mahogany brown red, light head, floaties. Lovely aroma, orange marmalade, candi sugar, Turkish delight. Just as lovely of flavor. Deep, satisfying malty goodness, chocolate, caramel. Initial zip of carbonation lends a perfect mouthfeel. Fresh Brune is still the flag bearer, but this is not far behind, and very close with the Grand Cru, imo. In short, Abbaye des Rocs is the shit, one of a kind
