Default Rochefort 8

11.2oz. bottle
9.2% ABV
Best before 12/25/2007 on bottle

I'm still making an effort to try things that I have for some reason
not got to before. I don't know why I have passed this up before,
maybe the price.

I drank this at cellar temp. (high 50's). It poured a deep brown with
plenty of carbonation forming a thick fine head. Lots of fruit and
malt in the aroma. This seemed pretty clean for a Belgian, not a lot
of funk. There was a very big and smooth malt presence with just a
touch of hops, nicely warming. I had a hard time picking out specific
flavors, but I really enjoyed it.

I've seen the 6 around here, but I don't think I've seen the 10.
