Trappist ale brewed with spices. We brewed a beer that we describe as 'slightly unruly'--our Trappist 8 is a beer you must take time to understand. Chestnut-colored and bottle-conditioned, with aroma of herbs and spices; initially floral and slightly sweet; character develops from light caramel to a lovely, dry, hoppy bitterness as the flavor opens. Brewed within the walls of Zundert Trappist Monastery by monks.

330ml bottle from Belgium in A Box - Pours a beautiful hazy bronze fluid with a huge frothy off-white head. Aroma is sweet with honey, figs and malts. Nice sweet and balanced taste. Itβs okay, but Iβve had many better Tripels.
