L- Pours a rich amber, with a 5mm white head and lively rising CO2. Holds well.
S- 'That Trappist spicy twist'. Very nice.
T- The spicy aspect follows through, otherwise it's relatively light and bright for the style. A dryer than usual hoppy flourish into the finish.
F- A beer with this taste is usually a bit richer/heavier and with a higher ABV% This packs a lot of flavour whilst having a relatively lighter body.
O- A very nice beer indeed. As above a bit different from the typical 7.5% - 9 % Trappist brew. Well put together, nothing out of place. I'd happily drink it again.
Bought from Bacchanalia, Cambridge, 330ml bottle BB: 12-08-2022 £3.75

Drank from my Egelszell Goblet
A - Pours a hazy honey colour with a withe head that reduces to a film
S - Mango and spicy fruit
T - Mango and fruits the flavor is well balanced without being pronounced
M - Medium body and low carbonation
O- reminds me of the La Trappe Blonde and is slightly underwhelming

Pours a deep, dark orange coloration with a small, fizzy head. Smells of yeast, malt and spice, with a hint of orange rind. Taste follows the nose, with a slightly sweet, caramel malt and yeast dominated taste, with a hint of orange rind and loads of herbaceous spice in the aftertaste. Coriander, clove, pepper stand out. Very mild bitterness. I#m not that familiar with the style, but all in all I enjoyed this. Kind of reminded me of a more spicey Hefeweissbier, Weihenstephaner Vitus came to mind.
