Bottle at Beer Station, Bucharest. Dark malt aroma with liquorice, whiskey, some oak, dried fruits, raisins, some chocolate even. Rich and sweet with a mild boozy sticky feel, bit syrupy. Pretty classy I'd say.

My 33 cl bottle was a difficult acquisition, a cooperative Dutch seller helped in getting the order delivered. This is the first wax-dipped bottle I have encountered in quite a while, looks upscale. This evening the glass of choice is the Trappistes Rochefort Belgian glass. Time to lift the cap, I smell ripe fruit, bread and booze. The appearance is a mahogany brown with little to no head. And now the taste. Raisins, a bit of chocolate, grain, a contribution from the scotch barrel, red plums, malt, yeast and caramel. The sensation is soft and smooth. I find this to be a subdued quadrupel with a nice inclusion of booziness. A good tasting.
