Characteristically Trappist ale and the source for the name of this ale style. Warm, amber-coloured with a cream-coloured head. The full, heart-warming and intense taste is malty with sweet tones of dates and caramel. EBC 35.

Bottle from Jonas, thanks! Very dark amber, tall lasting head of large bubbles. Bready, toffee nose with hints of earthiness. Nicely sweet but not overly so, clean bitterness and roasted malt in the background. Chewy raisins, toffee-biscuit, fresh dark bread with molasses and honey... Warming but not too hot alcohol... This beer has it all. Classic.

Rich orange/tan colour with a soft well laced head. The aroma is soft and sweet, malty with a light spiciness. Drinking a beer like this after indulging in too many IPAs over time is a real treat. This beer has a lovely balance of banana, brown sugar, Belgian yeast, dried fruit and bubble gum. The body is rich and a touch syrupy with a typically fine and fluffy effervescence that enhances the taste. A great beer.

Bottle, 2023 vintage. Caramel malt aroma with notes of dark fruit, clove, Belgian yeast, toffee, banana and vanilla. Pours cloudy copper colored with a large off white head that has excellent retention and some lacing. Starts with rich caramel, dark fruit, banana and clove flavors as well as having a rich, full body and smooth mouthfeel. Finishes quite smooth with toffee, vanilla and spicy Belgian yeast flavors. Excellent quad!

Draft @ La Trappe. Pours a clear mahogany, smooth white head. Lovely subtle toffee character, super soft palate, but lacks a certain richness.. bottle seems better, unfortunately no oak aged available.

From one monoprix, at Paris, in my point of view, it is a solid quadrupel, round and smooth, plum and apricot, some hop. 02.08.2019, drinking it at Bonfol, Jura, holidays in family.
