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.

Fles thuis geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een amberkleurig bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het aroma is wat zurig en fruitig. De smaak is kruidig en wat hoppig.

Bottle/Fest. A- Gum, spice. A- Golden copper color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Spice, herbal, gum, wheat. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, spiced finish. O- A solid Belgian that honestly I'd not even heard of before the fest. Drank easy but clearly pushed to the back by the bigger names that are honestly better. Drinkable but not enough to stand out from the crowd of other great examples in this style.

Bottle at home came with proper glassware that I’m sucker for. Plum copper looking frothy head. Nose is dark fruits and yeast. Tastes of dried figs, plum, yeasty, hay, herbal, some slicing and orange peel. Dry palate. Thinner bodied.

Bottle at la brasserie , torre del mar , malaga. Aroma is tart fruits, sweet malts, flavor is malts, nougat, sweet dried fruits like figs, dates. This is not a tripel. More like a light quad or a strong belgian ale.
