La Trappe Bockbier

Bottle. Unclear dark brown with a big, slowly-diminishing, beige head. Aroma of caramel, raisins, plums and other dark fruits. Sweet malty taste with some caramel, toastiness, some nuts, light licorice hints, dark fruits, a bit of spiciness and alcohol and metal notes. Medium-bodied.

(bottle - 330 ml) Clear brown color with a frothy tan head. Aroma is sweet and fruity. Lots of plums and caramel up front. Flavor starts with a sweet and fruity taste mixing with some mild spice and dark malts. There’s a nice and semi-sweet cocoa middle along with some more fruits and spices. A nice yeasty finish comes up and leaves a mild sweetness.

Deep brown, slightly hazy pour with a thick tan head and some nice ruby highlights. Really good looking beer. The nose is fairly plummy and chewy. A soft spicy yeast with a bit of dark sweet fruit skin. A touch of clove and some light tannins as well. There is a kiss of cocoa on the back. The beer is well-balanced and eminently drinkable. It’s sweet but not cloying. Toasty with a bit of rye-like sweetness. A little bit rummy with a lovely sweet molasses character. This isn’t a bock, but it’s very good.

Dark brown colour, big creamy head, creme-coloured. Staying in the glass for a long while. In the nose there is roasted malts, coffee, caramel. Tastes hoopy, bitter, herbal, hints of coffee and malts. A bit sweet, but for sure not dominating. Long finish, Nice.

30cl, from the brewery, complex brew, yet easy to drink, balanced, hazy, good head, good Trappist

Dark chestnut with a big off-white head. Aroma of rich dried fruits, spicy phenols, alcohol and a mild oxidation. Sweet and fruity flavour with warming alcohol, and lingering malt and chocolate notes.

75cl bottle. Thanks a lot Nightfall. Trade. Pours dark browny/reddish with a small creamy white head and lacings. Sweet yeasty and malty nose. Dark fruits and caramel. A bit dusty and matured taste. Medium and smooth palate. Tasty.

It poured a hazy dark brown liquid with a small light brown foam. It had a fairly weak smell of yeast and spices. It had allot of carbonation and a taste of spices, caramell and yeast. An ok beer.
