330ml bottle into marked Trappist glass at De Garre cafe in Bruges. A hazy pale golden beer with a decent sized frothy white head and excellent lacing. Musty spicy fruity aromas on the nose. The taste is fruity malts with spicy hops and yeasts. Nicely balanced without too much sweetness. Feels quite light bodied for the ABV which only increases its sessionability. Well worth seeking out this one.

Poured from bottle into chalice, massive fluffy head and nice golden colour. Smells of citrus, slight grains. Great taste of orange, coriander, slight bitter finish. No hint of alcohol that I could tell. Pretty darn good.

Golden to orange in color with a very nice foamy white head. The smell is yeast, fruits, oranges, some spices. nice feel. The taste is sweet, floral, fruits, and yeast.

A head and colour like Orval but unfortunately doesn’t quite have the taste to match. Very bitter and a little weak on flavour. This is all a little harsh though, I’m only comparing it to other trapist beers. Still a very impressive brew.

Champagne like pour! Colossal just off-white pillowy cap and some of the best lacing I’ve ever seen. Bright cloudy orange gold with some silt-like sediment inching it’s way to the bottom of the glass. Aroma is pretty standard - lots of yeast, spicy hops, ample alcohol and some fruitiness. Flavour is extra good because I’m not getting hammered by the harshness. Complex and sort of soft, slight sourness, noticable ammount of malts, maybe licorice - but a ton of spices, wheat and sugary candy (probally the red ones). I’m not huge on this style, but I’m really enjoying this! Endless lacing and a permanent head. Medium bodied with a soft feel. Man, I’m liking this....The sharp bitterness fades and the malts take over. Sweet too. Breathe in the alcohol... Better than I assumed.
