A nice dark brown color when poured and a decent head that forms. Smelled nicely of sweet malts adn caramel. The flavor was very malty, sweet, caramel, and a mixture of fruits. Very good brew.

12 oz bottle. Another trappist brewery added to my selection, very excited for it. Pours a dark brown with a light tan head that is about a finger high. Amazed at how long the head stays (though part of it might be because I poured it into the wrong glass by mistake), and how full bodied the head is. Smells of dried apricot, raisins, and other dried dark fruit. Reminds me a lot of Chimay Red’s smell. Tastes of raisin, caramel, yeast, and dried fruit. Goes down with a bit of a carbonation bite, but I love that. Overall very good.

Third hit on the wayback machine. Pours a clody, dark brown with a nice tan head. Fantastic, sweet caramel aroma, a hint of breadiness. Again, sweet body, dark fruits, raisins, biting, yeasty finish. Definitely a great choice, just not on par with the Rochefort or Westy.

Pours a very murky reddish brown with lots of yeast floating in it. Small tan head. Flavor starts out incredibly rich and chocolatey and finishes up with just a touch of sourness then a fairly dry, hoppy finish. Quite nice.
