Jun 8, 2002 A great beer. Can’t tell any appreciable difference in the bottle or tap version. Thre are no tours of the Abbey, but there is a cafe accross the street that is an excellent place to have a few.

Dec 8, 2001 Updated: Jan 11, 2004Strong plum/wine aroma. Powerful head that leaves a nice lace. Slight lingering alcohol aftertaste. The taste of dark fruit is surprisingly good. The bottle that I had was 10 months old. The next one I get will be aged for at least two years.

Dec 14, 2001 Bottle sampled in 2001 (no bottling date but prob 2000-01). Deep red-brown color with medium-thickness head; strong grapy aroma with I think a hint of cloves. Flavor very wine-like but with enough malt and hops so you know its beer; I personally loved it. Goes down very smooth; one of the most drinkable, ’quaffable’ Belgians, if not the most complex.

Dec 24, 2001 Very nice dubbel. Banana/plum/yeast heavy in the nose. Wine/chocolate taste. Hoppy finish. Enjoy!

Oct 28, 2002 This pours a very nice amber/brown with a very large white head. Very malty in character with a slight dry finish. Worth seeking out.

Jun 22, 2002 Updated: Feb 1, 2003Cloudy brown color, average frothy, clingy off white head. Has a bready yeasty banana aroma. Sweet malty doughy flavors of
dark fruits
such as plum and rasions, medium body with a light bubbly mouthfeel, it finishes rather dry, which is a good thing, not the best trappist but still great.

Oct 7, 2003 On Tap in Paris! Sweet malt and caramel aroma. Dark brown, accompanied by a medium sized toffee head, with some lace. Lovely full caramel/malt taste. Well balanced, complex and smooth as silk. Gorgeous!
