Life-harboring, berry chocolate corals form the backdrop of a complex ecosystem...As schools of bright peppery hops pass by, a bready yeast eel seeps out from its truffle rock and remains staring, defiant...To witness all of these hedonistic movements and swim amid its cherry syrup undulations, just visit the austral section of the great Rochefort 10 reef...

Aroma is sirupy sweet, a little alcoholic with dried fruits. Tastes sweet and sour fruity with a hint of plum. Palate feels slippy and carbonated, still balanced. Aftertaste is sweet and alcohol is warming nicely.

Very dark red-brown beer with big beige head. Aroma is complex: lot of dried fruits, sweetness, anise and hint of alcohol. Flavour is also very complex: fruits, spice and sweetness that dried in the end and flavour changes slightly roasted and hoppiness. Full bodied beer with quite much of cacrbonation but still quite nice to drink. Complex, cristmas-like, sweet beer with lot of pleasant nuancees.
