Great age. Caramelly and smooth with a soft mouthfeel.

Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 9.5 | Flavor - 9.5 | Texture - 9 | Overall - 9.5

Hazy brown with a small tan head. Aroma of overripe dark fruits, caramel, malt, toffee, dried fruits and brown sugar. Flavour is heavy sweet. Full bodied with light carbonation. Always a classic.

Bottled 22.06.2016, Sampled on october 15th , 2020. Always kept in my personal cellar (non wine cooler area) Pours a lighter, more clear, yet still very dark brown. Sediment has formed flakes. Foam is less stable, but still present for a while. Scent is a blast of fine port, dried dark fruits. heavy and complex. Taste is full, port, dried dark fruits, chocolate, a rediculously gentle yeast aroma, sweetness. Taste can create a heavy memory-throwback, and believe you me, beer can also create a feeling. How does a Rochefort 10 of 4 year old, served cellar temperature, perfectly aged féél ? Imagine a hug from your crush, for the first time ever. The perfect beer sure doesn't exist , but its laughable how freakin' close rochefort 10 comes. Bacth after batch, year after year. Available in all good bars, supermarkets, even nightshops (in BE ) for less money than your avarage, often dissapointing craftbeer.

Still a bit boozy, but really balanced and mellow
