Gregorius shimmers in the glass with a rich dark maroon colour. In the nose herbal and licorice aromas dominate, which are combined with ripe fruit notes. It presents a strong malt body, which is characterised by coffee and roasted aromas. Honey from the region and Alsatian wine yeast conjure up a nice sweet and sour game on the palate. Slightly bitter chocolate flavors accompany the warming finish of this powerful Trappist beer. Deep - Thoughtful.

Bottle: Poured a clear deep brown color ale with a generous head with OK retention and light lacing notes. Aroma of caramelized malt with light dry fruits with quite a bit of residual sugar notes. Taste is also a mix between caramelized malt with some dry fruits notes with quite a bit of residual sugar. Body is about average with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Not bad bit lacks cohesion and balance as well as those candy ester that the other Trappist have.

Bottle from the LCBO. Murky dark brown with a generous tan head. Nose of dark fruit, brown sugar and a touch of chocolate and vanilla. Light sweet and tart fruity mouth with a good medium light bitterness and noticeable spicy yeast. Medium full syrupy mouth with soft carbonation and a lingering tart finish.

33cl bottle from Sebilinz, many thanks! Rating nr #4000.
Poured dee brown with a thick off white head. Brown sugar aroma, almonds, dried fruits. Flavor has caramelized sugar, yeast, dark bready notes. Long sweet finish with some dried fruity notes. High carbonation. Hides the ABV nicely, hence the sweetness.

Bottle. Dark reddish brown with nice light brown head, looks great except there’s a lot of weird things floating around here, like pulp in orange juice (and I poured very carefully). Chocolate, honey, light ash, quite some herbs, light bitter fresh green vegetables, dry spices. Quite sweet with dry herbal finish. Full bodied with nice carbonation. Wow, this really is all over the place. The aroma and taste are a lot like how it looks: very good at first, but then you also notice some things that really don’t work at all. Has potential but now it’s not really my thing.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown with small off white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is yeast, dark fruit, wood. Similar flavors to nose, candy sugar, light booze finish, good.

Foam: small creamy beige, not long lasting, no lingering. Colour: hazy little opaque dark brown. Aroma: caramel malts, dried sweet fruits, banana, a hints of vanilla, mocha and yeast. Taste: roasted malt, caramel, quite bitter on palate, milk chocolate, coffee, brown sugar, bread, medium to low carbonation, medium body, interesting and good Trappist beer from Austria worth to taste, but not as good as for example Orval or St. Bernardus Abt 12 and it costs two times more, at least here in Belgium.

Bottle, BBD 13.1.2017, alc. 10,5% ABV. Aroma lots of honey, toffeeish caramel, dried fruits. Also prominent alcohol. Dark brown colour, some sediment, but it is possible to pour it clean if you want. Beige head, quite stable. After tasting there is no doubt left - this is the first commercially available braggot that I have been able to taste :) Thin body which comes from heavy use of honey that ferments completely. Also lots of honey flavour, bearing strong familiarity with my own braggot that I made from forest honey. However in this beer there is a slightly too alcoholic warming finish. Not exactly unpleasant, rather underlining that this beer is a sipper. Dry fruits and also caramel in flavour, but this one is mostly about the honey. Good braggot.
