Abbaye des Rocs Brune 1979
9.0% Belgian Strong Ale
Abbaye des Rocs (9% ABV) is a pure malt beer with no added sugar. The harmony of flavours is directly linked to its double fermentation process, the precise quantities of malt used (7 types).
It is a majestic, papal, dark ruby red colour. Its taste is rich and full of subtlety. It is enjoyed like a red wine, whose colour it resembles, but without the tannin. It develops a very powerful aroma with sweet notes. It confirms the initial impression in the mouth, although now enveloped by a deep bitterness, yet one that is well balanced and with a certain fruitiness. It is released fully on the palate, developing an impressive density of flavour. There are notes of burnt wood, but although this beer includes a roasted malt in its ingredients, this does not come through in the aroma. The aftertaste is very long thanks to its dense and creamy development whilst in the mouth.

Samettinen 2 sormen paksuinen vaahto tumman ruskeassa sameassa, virkistävässä ja kuivaavassa oluessa.
Ulkoiseltaan olemukseltaan kuin kotikalja, ihmeellinen maku kirjo jatkuvasti muuttava makeus. Hyvä hedelmäisyys, mielenkiintoinen tapaus.
Hedelmäinen, karamellimainen, mallasmainen, mausteinen ja yrttimäinen.
