Trappist Westvleteren 8

Country: Belgium

Brewery: Westvleteren Abdij St. Sixtus

Style: Belgian Strong Ale

Format: 330ml Bottle

ABV: 8%

Westvleteren has the smallest output of the Trappist breweries, with only a small part of their production going very far into the world.

Dark amber colour. Crowned with an abundant and strong lacing head. The aroma of the Westvleteren 8 is an attractive combination of green nuts, soft fruit and a touch of caramel. The different flavours of this beer lead to a harmonious yet complex taste. One tastes the malts, as it were, up to barley husk. The aftertaste is characterised by a distinct and striking hop bitterness.
