Note de dégustation

Robe trouble d'une profonde couleur brune à reflets cuivrés. Arômes de caramel, de gâteaux aux fruits, d'épices et de chocolat. Bouche entre mi-corsée et corsée, avec d'intenses saveurs de chocolat amer, de houblon terreux, de figue, d'épices et de pouding à la mélasse.

Note de dégustation (anglais)

The lower gravity cousin to Rochefort 10. Nicknamed Spéciale 'The Special', this beer is the most recent production. The Rochefort 8 has a more tawny colour and a more pronounced aroma, with an even richer fruitiness and a little more spiced dryness, like that of a cake, which gives a balanced finish to the final notes.

This top-fermented, dark trappist ale is a tawny brown colour with a pronounced taste, rich fruitiness, a touch a of fig and a strong aftertaste. Best served between 12° and 14°C.
