In my area both are $4.99 a bottle. If you had to choose, which one are you picking up? I rated 8 higher, but i’d probably pick up Orval....at least today.

Grate prices for you. I’ve got $5.49 for Orval, $6.29 for 8. And the correct answer I believe is to buy one of each and make a black and tan.

An aged bottle of Orval is like a $500 bottle of champagne

Rochefort 8. Now it turns out Orval is a nitro beer it must be shunned. Also I have a few and no Rochefort.

Depends on the mileage both have traveled through the three tier system.

The new head brewermaster at Orval is a nun vegan feminist . Since she started brewing I have had more dud bottles from batch to batch than ever before ...Coincidence ?

Sounds like a win-win situation.
But if I only had $4.99 and I HAD to choose, I would sell one shoe for $5, buy both, and give the penny to a homeless person.

Some of us have to pay taxes. $5 plus a shoe well cover the one bottle with change left over but not both.
