Aug 25, 2006 Better known as Orval Vert or green Oval, note the glass, you have to go to the monastery to get it, but if you are looking for a low alchol beer this is the best.

Jul 3, 2006 Bottled at the cafe close to the monastery. Cloudy orange golden coloured, big head. Yeasty and fruity, hop-bitterness. Of course everyone is comparing this one to the ’real’ Orval, which has a flavour quite similar. This one closely resembles its bigger brother, although in finish the difference becomes really obvious. Nevertheless, this very easy to drink beer with only 3.5% ABV is marvellously complex and probably the best low alcohol beer i know.

Jul 1, 2006 Bottle, Ange Gardien at 100 m from the Abbey. Cloudy orange golden color, big off-white head. Aroma is bit fruity, some bubblegum, typical Orval but bit weaker. Also taste is typical Orval, but a bit weaker. Easy to drink that way, and as Orval is one of my favorite beers, I like this one too.

Jun 5, 2006 bottle courtesy of BierKonig, opened with egadzis and hopdog at Yeha05...pour was the standard orval color, but the head was not the layer of thick foam that one regularly gets, instead being thinner and fading faster. the aroma was more yeasty and toast laced, and didnt have the uniqueness of the standard. overall, i thought was a more drinkable version of its more famous sibling, but the uniquness of Orval is one of the things that makes it as desireable as it is.

Feb 28, 2006 London Gathering Nov 05: Dry, hoppy spicy aroma with some funky notes. Tastes like watered down Orval. Quaffable table beer. Gold with a white head.
