La Trappe got me into quads. Now I struggle with it. Too much hot alcohol and not enough defined flavour. Glad I got into them though! Such a great drop.manticle said:Picture a beer in a glass. I't a leffe glass and currently it's 1/3 full.
It contains la trappe quadrupel (essentially dark strong).
La trappe have always been my least favourite trappist. Not bad beers - just not as good as most of the others. There's one new one I haven't tried and one old one (westvleteren) I havent tried.
Had this before but thought I'd refresh my memory. Not bad by any stretch but contains all the things I try and keep or age out of my strong belgians - loads of ethyl hexoanate (red apple skin ester) and warm, boozy alcohol. Cloudy brown, warm on the nose and back palate, lacking the complexity of a rochefort 10 or even westmalle dubbel.

Nice looking beer. What does it taste like? Only had one beer (that I'm aware of with Sorachi Ace) and wasn't a big fan of it.DU99 said:
Cool. That's what I would have expected based on my experience. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing outDU99 said:suppose have grassy lemon flavour..but nothing like it rather sour/bitter taste..something i won't be buying again...
