Brewed by Brasserie dOrval
Style: Belgian Ale
Florenville - Villers-d.-Orval, Belgium

Bottle@Auberge de L’Ange Gardien,@home. Nice cloudy orange color with soft white head. Sweet and appealing aroma. Fruity, citrus, spicy flavor with a bit of yeast and hop. Good body, dry finish. Different from the other trappists, a tasteful beer.

Cloudy golden yellow color, Huge head lasted throughout the entire drink. Med Mouthfell. aroma was citrus, tasted of citrus and sour, tart apples, and some other fruit. This was a very flavorful brew, that was all over my pallet! i think ever crevice of my mouth tasted something unique. But that being said, it just wasnt really a favor im too fond of. To me this beer was just okay, after trying a few differnt ones, I guess im just not a fan of this particular style.

Aroma of apples, apricot with plenty of malty character. The head on this beer was HUGE, and the high carbonation was surprising, but not unpleasant. Apricot with an overall fruity and spicy quality to the flavor. Fizzy palate with an alcohol tinge. I thought this beer was excellent and very well crafted.

Pours an apricot orange with dense sediment swirls. Aroma is sweet, with candy sugar and ripe flowers. Flavor is tasty but odd. Fruity, but a little skunky. I’m tasting a little perfume in there too. Not as enjoyable as I’d hoped for, but fun because it is a unique one. Overall, good+.

Pours a light orange with a big off white head. Nose with complex fruit, oranges and tartness. Flavor is the same. Very good and drinkable Belgian ale.

Brewed in Belgium......... Pours a copper color with a nice fizzy white head and lovely carbonation. Aroma of oranges, spices, citrus and some mild funk. Taste of fruits, yeast, some brett and hops. The mouthfeel is spritzy with a wonderful chewy palate that ends with a yummy dry sour finish. This ale is much better then i thought it would be.

Pours a rich amber color with a great head in its own Trappist glass. Sweet and fruity with nice carbonation. This beer begs to be savored. It really does not get much better than this. Can pick up on the "pale-ness." Great to have a Trappist that is not too strong to sip a few of.

Orval pours a cloudy golden yellow with a beautiful white foamy head that lingers and clings nicely to the glass. It smells of citrus and malt. The flavor of this beer is complex and refreshing at the same time. The carbonation never overpowers the citrus and malt flavors, which leave room for a nice hoppy bitter finish very late.
