Bottle. Pours a deep golden mahogany with a big creamy beige head. Aromas of dried sweet fruits, dark sugar, chocolate and slight nuts. Roasted malty taste with sweet fruits and yeast. Slightly alcoholic. Very soft carbonation. Not really worth 4.3 in my opinion but Trappists isn’t my favorite type of beer - at all.

Bottle. Dark brown with a hint of red, decent head. Raisins, plum jam sweetness in the nose. Sweet, but complex like a fine dessert: red dried fruit, jam, nutty spices, caramel, fruitcake. Tied together with a belly-warming alcohol warmth a bit reminiscent of Sherry. Classic, almost perfection.

0,33 l bottle. Pours hazy amber brown with a finger of lasting, dense off whit head. Aroma is fruity, dried plums, dates maybe, caramel, candy, malt and yeast. Alcohol is well hidden. Rich and complex. Taste is medium sweet and medium bitter. Body is full, carbonation lively and mouthfeel sticky. Finish is long, quite dry, fruity with spicy bitterness. Excellent!

2019 bottle. A true classic that I've been wanting to revisit for a while now. Pretty fresh, I prefer it with some age. Bit high carbonation. Sweet, Belgiany, candied sugar. Lots of dried fruit / raisins.

0,33 l bottle. Pours dark amber brown with a finger of lasting beige head. Aroma is fruity, plenty of dried fruit, dried plums in particular, raisin and dates, there is also some caramel and toffee. It has vinous properties, similar to strong red vine from a region with plenty of sunshine. Alcohol is present, but not too forward. Taste is quite heavy sweet and medium bitter. Body is full, carbonation mild, mouthfeel sticky. Finish is long, rich with dried fruit and mild lasting bitterness. Mild stomach warming sensation adds to very pleasant experience.
