bottiglia 33 cl, 2021 ed., bel cappello di schiuma fine nocciola persistente, color tonaca di frate con riflessi rubino, al naso vino Porto miele di castagno prugna sciroppata zucchero di canna caramello uvetta sotto spirito vaniglia liquirizia leggero banana, in bocca vino Porto caramello prugna secca vaniglia uvetta sotto spirito liquirizia spezie, corpo strutturato, carbonazione moderata, alcool ben presente riscalda ma non disturba, dolce con amaro accentuato lungo nel finale. Potente complessa un viaggio di sensazioni. Meritata la fama di una delle TOP al Mondo. Eccezionale. Me la sono tenuta per la mia 2000° recensione. c. Cantina della birra 02.08.26

Vintage 2007. Bottle from Beer Mania (Bruxell in 07.06.2010) Price was 14 EUR. Wonderfull smell, beautiful foam and intense dark colour. In mouth Hot palete of aroma. Pyszne piwo pachnace swierzymi przyprawami, ziolami i karmelowymi slodami. Ciezkie, tresciwe i czarne piwo. Alkohol sprytnie ukryty. Piwo jest wzorowym produktem Trapistow, polecam kazdemu te doznania smakowe, nawet tym ktorzy uwielbiaja jasne lagery. Finisz niezwykle dlugi i wytrawny, mozna sie do syta najesc tym piwem, tylko szkoda ze tak ciezko je zdobyc.

Vintage 2011. Special Limited Bottle with Gold sign XII on the front. Coz mocno aromatyczne pachnie wyraziscie winem, jakis rum, sliwki wegierki, czarne porzeczki, jeżyny, mocny aromat posmak tez fajny, wytrawny, subtelnie slodkawy, owocowy. Chmielowe nieco, ale tylko nieco, na koncu jezyka, Jedno z najlepszych piw jest bardzo dobre, unikatowe, ale czy najlepsze chyba raczej nie.

Don't know what the fuzz is all about. Happy to not have overpaid for this, although 5 euro still is a lot for a quadruple.
