Trappistes Rochefort 8

Origin: Belgium

Type: Belgian Strong Ale

Alcohol Content: 9.2%

Has a dark cherry body that is quite cloudy. You’ll get a light little brown head that will dissolve into a nice rim around the glass. You can smell the raisins, cherries as well as a woody aroma. There’s this slight taste of rum as well as heaps of earth tones that gives it a light thin taste. Notes of cinnamon and other spices are strong once it goes down and it’s important to note that the body is lighter than expected. It ends with syrupy cherry notes that’s quite mild and thin. It’s quite a nice beer to try out and not to mention it’s a 9% beer that’s really easy to drink.
