Dec 30, 2008 Sweet malts, caramelized sugar, figs, hints of vanilla in the nose. Pours a rich brown color with a huge white head. Very smooth, sweet malts, brown sugar, caramel, vanilla, spicy hops with some spicy yeast notes, clove. There are hints of chocolate that come out as it warms. Excellent beer, nice complexity but still very drinkable.

Dec 27, 2008 Az eltévedt bárány, a hatodik belga trappista kolostor, Achel egyik söre, barna, 8% alkoholtartalommal. A holland-belga határon levő kolstorban egészen a II. világháborúig főzték a sört, amikor a sörfőzés kifinomult művészete iránt kevésbé fogékony németek szétlőtték a kolostor sörfőzdéjét. Nem is indult újra a termelés egészen a 90-es évek elejéig, amikor más belga kolostorokból érkeztek sörfőző apátok, kisegíteni a testvéreket. Pár év elteltével meg is kapták trappista termék védjegyet, így gazdagodott a trappista sörök sora.
Ez a bizonyos nyolcas egészen mély, vörösesbarna. Illata könnyed, gyümölcsös. Ízében jóval lájtosabb, mint az Orval vagy a Chimay, de csalókán azért ott lappang az alkohol, ami még jobban kiemeli a gyümölcsös komponenseket. Utóízében enyhén karamelles, kesernyés, kellemesen kerek, harmonikus. Nem mondanám, hogy nőknek készült, de a többi trappista szerintem rusztikusabb, macsósabb, ha ennek így van értelme.

Dec 26, 2008 Bottled. Dark reddish brown color with a nice beige head and persistent. Aroma quite weak, some notes of roasted malt and chocolate. Flavor is quite complex, notes of burned sugar, toffee, chocolate and coffee, medium carbonation, better than blonde one, but I could feel a little bit of alcohol. Mouthfeel is amazing, like bitter chocolate and toffee.

Dec 17, 2008 Bottle. Poured a dark, murky, reddish brown with an averaged sized tan head. Initially, lots of carbonation bubbles on the side of the glass. Aromas and tastes of spices, caramel, yeast, toffee and some plums. Starts off lightly sweet and ends on a nice, dry finish. Taste was average, nothing special here. The other trappist are better.

Dec 16, 2008 Pours a dark mahogany color with a pretty large tope colored head. Nose is booze, raisins, port, and sugar, taste is the same with more molasses and plums. Not bad and feels decent in the mouth while being highly quaffable at 8 percent.
