Named after brother Isidorus, Koningshoeven Abbey’s first brewer. Brewed to mark the occasion of the Trappist brewery’s 125th anniversary in 2009, Isid’or was so well received that it earned itself a permanent place in La Trappe’s line-up. Unfiltered, slightly sweet amber ale with a hint of caramel, which continues to ferment after bottling and has a rich, slightly bitter flavour, and a fruity aftertaste.

Look - 330ml bottle poured into a 250ml chalice. amber in color, hazy, with a large three-finger frothy head that leaves behind moderate lacing.

Smell - phenols and sweetness hits the nose first, followed by dried fruits, spices, and some malty fragrance. overall complex and interesting.

Taste - initial taste is fruit-forward, which quickly moves to the spices then becomes malt dominant. caramel and some more spices towards the finish.

Feel - medium bodied, above average carbonation, and appropriate in ABV for the style at 7.5%.

Overall - a solid Belgian amber that has a lot of complexity and slightly less boozy than some of its tripel or quadrupel counterparts. quite delicious.
