| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | May 7, 2008 Draught. Right, down to business: It’s been ruined. I haven’t bought Chouffe for a couple of years, and it was more than a disappointment. What have Moortgat done to this once great beer? Where it used to be cloudy, full bodied and aromatic in that way so characteristic of Wallonian beers, the beer served here is a typical big brewery flemish tripel, and as bland as can be. So clear it could be filtered, little aroma and a corny flavour, sticky mf and rapidly disappearing carbonation. If this is the current state of this beer, then its overall rating here is misleading and ratings should be started again from zero. This is not the beer on which most of these 788 rates is based. At the time, I considered going straight to the brewery and punching someone.
