Rich malty aroma with lots of toffee and complex fruity esters. Ruby-brown in color, nice off-white head. Flavor matches the aroma. Doesn’t have the alcohol presence or spiciness of the stronger versions. Medium body, high carbonation but smooth. A very satisfying beer.

Dec 17, 2009 bottle. pours dark, but relatively clear mahogany with a fizzy offwhite head. aroma of dark fruits, figs, plum, raisins, grapes, medicine. flavor is dark fruit skins, caramel, brown sugar, spices, hay. There is a peculiar sharp plum skin note that sticks out in the flavor. well carbonated. alcohol is well hidden. If you like plums, raisins, and tasty quaffable belgian beers you shoud like this.

Dec 16, 2009 Pours a very hazy brown, with alot more fizz than expected. Thin creamy head, flavors of smooth toasted malts and barley. In comparison to the other brews Rochefort the carbonation is really high, but it’s an enjoyable brew none the less.

Dec 16, 2009 Poured from 330ml to a Bruery tulip glass.
Bottle code: 28 01 14 14:31
Poured a hazy amber color with a nice off white head, great lacing and retention.
The nose was very fruity and spicy.
The initial taste was a bit sweet and a bit sour to me. I tasted fruity apple, caramel , lots of spice and a bit of an alcohol taste.
Light to medium body, a little sticky with great carbonation.
This was my first from Rochefort, and it was good - although not my favorite of the trappists so far.
