Bottle: Unfiltered In 1952, in order to place the modernisation of the brewery on the right commercial footing, much care was taken with the launch of Rochefort's two new beers. The refectory beer had been the basis for the development of the ‘Middel’ (also known as ‘Merveille’) which became the Rochefort 6. The 10, however, needed something else to elevate it: candy sugar, steeped in the wort in metal baskets, quite an innovation in those days. Furthermore, two malts were used in the brewing process: pils and caramel malt, as well as wheat starch, two varieties of hops and Rochefort’s own yeast. The result was the powerful Rochefort 10, a beer sure to warm your heart with its robust dose of alcohol.

Bottle. Caramel aroma with notes of dark fruit, Candi sugar, coffee, toffee, bread and banana. Pours dark toffee brown colored with half a finger of tan head that has excellent retention and good lacing. Starts with caramel, coffee, Candi sugar and bready malt flavors as well as having a rich, full body and smooth mouthfeel. Finishes smooth but a touch dry with dark fruit, banana and toffee flavors as well as some spicy Belgian yeast. Excellent quad.

Rather hazy, deep brown, full foamy head. Berry aroma, hints of banana too. Taste of dried fruit and berries. Full mouthfeel, alcohol is there but not too obvious. Balanced bitterness.

Boca 0,33L - kupljena prije dvije, tri godine - odlično pivo, puno okusa i arome, bogato, masno a opet dovoljno pitko.

Nose is a gentle mixture of banana, honey, raisins and malt. The taste replicates the nose, but adds further complexity. Dark berries, brown sugar, tropical fruit and some soft spices are complimented by a very soft effervescence and appropriately rich body. As good as advertised (if you are not a hop head).
