Bottle. Bready malt aroma with notes of caramel, toffee, dark chocolate, licorice, dark fruit and pepper. Pours cloudy toffee brown colored with a thin tan head that has little retention or lacing. Starts with dark chocolate, licorice, caramel and bready malt flavors as well as having a rich, full body and smooth mouthfeel. Finishes quite smooth with toffee, dark fruit and pepper flavors. Excellent.

Color rubio velado muy atractivo, espuma blanca de retención media, en general su aspecto es harto apetecible. Aroma muy 'britanico' en nariz, tiene ese aroma maltoso, herbal, floral y afrutado que en parte recuerda a las más clásicas english IPA. En boca es una gozada, sedosa y aterciopelada, maltosa, fondo dulce con sutiles destellos citricos, notas de melocotón maduro y albaricoque, final equilibradamente amargo. Que delicia, prácticamente es una caricia en el paladar , riquisima

Malty, slightly roasted taste with notes of dried fruit, dates, figs, dark bread, treacle, apricots, chocolate, nuts, orange and a mild spicy bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Rich and well made trappiste ale. Very nice.
