St. Bernardus Prior 8

Beautiful aroma, rich ripe fruit and some funky smells as well. Do I detect a hint of chocolate? Pours an unclear reddish brown with large chunks of sediment. A wonderful beer, my notes section is very short as I was too busy enjoying this! Perfectly smooth, winelike, world-class.

Bottle. Hazy brown colour with a large tan head. Malty aroma with spicy and fruity notes. The flavour is malt, raisin, liquorice, yeast, some sweetness, pepper and slightly bitter. Very smooth palate. Very tasty and easy to drink.

Pours a murky brown with a big white head. Malty, dark fruit and yeast aroma. Light sweet malt. raisin ad yeast taste. Very flavorful and easy to drink.

Bottle. Orangey brown pour with fluffy head. Sweet, fruity aroma. Sweet, fruity, apple, plum, quite malty too. A dangerously drinkable Belgian dubbel.

Bottle. Pours brown/dark amber with a fluffy off-white head and decent lacing. Slightly sweet, slightly tangy aroma that’s very nice but isn’t particularly strong. Fizzy, tingly palate and flavours of citrus, honey, toffee and sultanas. Very agreeable in all aspects, a great dubbel.

Aroma is sweet and fruity with a hint of alcohol. The flavor is nice and sweet/fruity like a white grape wine or raisins (most would probably say fig).

Meaty, Yeasty, with a slight prune flavor. As it warms, it gets harder to enjoy. Flavor is far from sweet, very savory. I do not like this. Bottle from Lucky Liquors, Miami.

33cl bottle. Hazy brown colour with creamy off-white head, good lacing and mostly lasting. Aroma is hoppy, with flowers and citrons, and a bit malty, some cereals, with hints of yeasty sweetness. Some earth-wood notes too. Flavor is moderate bitter whit some sweetness. The finish, of average duration, is sweet with a bit of acidic. Medium bodied with creamy texture. Fizzy carbonation. Sweet alcoholic sensation in the end. Goos beer.
