If you have read my comments you know I am a huge Trappist fan, but this beer rivals the best of them. Typical Belgian strong ale aroma and appearance, but the drinkability is outstanding This is in the top five of my favorite Belgian beers. No disappointments on this one.

A beautiful golden amber ale with a super thick white head. A sweet brown sugar and honey aroma, a bit oxidized, with berries and vanilla. In mouth, a sweet vanilla malt with coriander, oily mouthfeel, medium bodied. This bottle is BB17/11/06 and was tasted Dec. 6 2008, so 2 years pasted its prime. Signs of ageing. Sweetness comes out more intense with the Swedish Farmers cheese.
