Nov 29, 2007 Bouteille de 330 ml, eu en fin d’octobre par un colegue de travaille, bu le 29/11/07. Brougogne brumeuse, petit collet persistant. Arome de malte très caramelisé, légèrement épicé et fruité. Goût très doux et très peu impossant de malte, avec une petite touche de caramel et d’alcool.

Nov 28, 2007 Good stuff. Amazing sweet and tangy aroma, nice caramel color with a great head. Flavor is a bit weak and it’s a bit thin, but still very good.

Nov 25, 2007 My least favorite of the Rocheforts but still a great beer. The same recipe is used for all three but the lower abv lessens the taste a bit by losing the warmth and roasted maltiness.

Nov 21, 2007 Updated: Jul 4, 2008Pours dark cloudy amber brown with a soapy off white head that lasts. Smells like dates and vinegar. Mouth feel is very velvety and has a bite of a bite on the swallow. Tastes like sour vinegar fruit and dark spicy fruit. A very respectable dubble.

Nov 21, 2007 Updated: Apr 1, 2009Quite a decent beer but I can’t help but compare it unfavourably to its bigger brothers. Perhaps unfair but I find it unavoidable. Dark red/brown, hazy but still slightly transparent. Sweet fruity aroma. The flavour is dominated by the raisiny-berry quality of the other two Rocheforts, but sadly lacks their toasted flavours, spiciness and alcoholic warmth. The body is also surprisingly thin for a Trappist. A nice beer, but I can’t see the point, if I want complexity and subtlety I’ll choose Rochefort 8 or 10, if I want an everyday beer I won’t choose one at 7.5% abv

Nov 20, 2007 Pretty solid taste - crisp and clean tasting - lots of good flavors - would buy again...maybe. Was 5.45 per bottle around my area.
