3.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20 TeamTrappist (785) - jericho, New York, USA - MAY 20, 2008
11.2 oz bottle. Poured a cedar brown, with a foamy light brown head. Slight yeasty malty nose. Served way too cold, and at first flavors were very slight. Lots of carbonation and a very similar look and feel to a rochefort 8, although the comparisons kind of end there.This is a very good beer, with complex flavors but I find it to be in the lower rung of the upper echelon of this style. As it warmed, the true flavors became apparent. There is a very smooth and dry finish to this beer, in contrast to its sweeter relatives.

Bottle. Berry aroma with a slight alcohol scent. Dark red color. Slighty sweet, yeasty intial taste. Heavily carbonated with a dry sweet finish. To me it almost resembles a sour or I would blasphemously say champagne.
