Which is the best way to describe this phenominal beer. It’s smell is spicy, with a hint of alchohol. It has a rich, beautiful amber color. It has a taste reminiscent of apple cider, but better, all-spice hints, and a bitter bite at the end, with a beautiful yeasty aftertaste. DCJack (146), Alabama, USA

there is something worthwhile about Pennsylvania after all.
This beer is awesome, comparable to Three Philosophers, my all time favorite beer, but this could give it a run.
Better than Rochefort 10.
Excellent mouth feel - silky smooth, full bodied, slightly bitter and astringent, sweet, but not too sweet.
Head effect is pure joy, light and laughable. I am happy.

Tastes like a combination of Westy 12 and Rochefort 10. Alcohol up front, but in a good, warming way; anyway this IS over 12%! Great thick mouthfeel too. Thanks VENOM, send me more! pubscout (27), Perth Amboy, New Jersey, USA

A big, big beer--not for the faint of heart but soothing and calming in the extreme. One Trappist glass and you'll be pontificating about the joys of life--kind of like I'm doing now.
I LOVED this beer! ericnixon (719), Northampton, Massachusetts, USA

Beautiful deep dark ruby color with a faint trace of a head around the edge of the glass. Wonderful complex raisiny, figy, and all those other wonferful full flavors musceling around in there. I didn’t think the alcohol flavor was as pronounced as the others did. maybe they’re all wussies or something. Great stuff! Volgon (2489), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

Thick and sweet, but only overwhelming on the brain, not the mouth. Thanks VENOM! Please tell me where I can get more, MORE!! gwfrankpsu (231), McKinleyville, California, USA

| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Jul 18, 2002 My overall favorite beer from this brewery...personally, I like it better than LaTrappes’s Quadrupel. Definitely improves with adequate aging (I have some 1.5 years old, but I live close and was there for its debut...what a spectacle!!) becoming less sweet and a little smoother (although it is fairly smooth already!)
