Buona ma non raggiunge i livelli eccelsi della numero 8, la 10 non l’ho sentita!

3oz taster at Davis Beer Shoppe. I’ve had the 8 and the 10 by the same brewer and those are far superior. Seems like a ligher version of those. Solid beer, but thin-bodied compared to those.

Flaske 0,33l fra Vinmonopolet, bestillingsutvalget. Mørk gyldenbrun med et veldig høyt luftig skum som varer lenge. God fyldig fruktig aroma. Rosiner & plommer. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken er balansert. Litt fersken. Syrligheten tiltar og en aner litt mandler underveis mot en tørr fruktig avslutning. Uklar siste kvelling. Mye sedimenter igjen i flaska.

Color: Dark brown almost black Aroma: Sweet, some alcohol Body: Sweet prunes, some fruityness, toffee Finish: Alcohol, sweet Over-all/Mouth-feel: Medium, low CO2

330 ml bottle bought @ Bierzwerg.de. Pours hazy chestnut brown with a big fizzy off-white head that quickly dissipates without leaving much trace on the glass. Smell is sweet, sour and slightly stale with hazelnuts, alcohol, prunes, Belgian yeast and hay. Taste is sweet and nutty with hazelnuts, almonds, wood, sweet fruits and hay. Finish is sweet, fruity and slightly bitter with some mineral characteristics.

Dark colour. Raisin and caramel aroma. Like a watered down version of the 8 and 10 Rocheforts

Redbrown color with nice head. It (of course) is less epic tasting than the Rochefort 8 or Rochefort 10, but the thing that i like here, is that it has got a very full body, but only 7.5 % alcohol...

Dark ruby color with small white vanishing head. Aroma of belgian yeast and berries. Sparkling and a bit watery (if compared to 10 and 8), bitter/sweet well balaned, dry alchoolic finish
