lively as most belgians, but not too lively, i managed to pour before it gushed. extreme amounts of floaties in the glass, and unbelievable number of small and BIG floaties in the bottle. the bottom 1.5cm of the bottle is one big pile of floaties of frigthening sizes. never seen anything like this. if this is my laste rate, this beer killed me!.
nice thick head, and nice amber colour.
spicy/pepery/sour aroma. nice.
flavor is also spicy, not sour. nice flavor.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 21, 2009 750 ml bottle. Best before 31-12-2009. Lots of floates, but in only half the bottle. Amber colour. Clear. Medium-sized white head that clings to the glass. Feels a little thin and dry in the nose. Wonderful sugary malt flavour. Really nice. Smooth texture from fine carbonation. Full-bodied. Caramel from the malts and the sugars and perfume from the yeast. Storing this beer made wonders. AR (423), Georgia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 19, 2009 This is my third beer from Abbaye des Rocs and it doesn’t impress my like the first two. There are a huge amount of solids suspended in the beer. The aroma has a somewhat prunish note, which is also a little bit evident in the taste. It does have a good flavoring, a sweet mix of grapes, prunes and caramel. jujubeast6000 (777), Houston, Texas, USA
