L 13-393, bb 2018. Very dark burnt orange, cloudy, dry caramel, great aging. Dark chocolate, some coffee, fresh orange peel. Love it! May have increased in alcohol due to further fermentation, hicks.

The colour is brown and cloudy. The nose is earthy. The flavour matches and is very strong and thick. There is complexity. It is not a simple beer, and it is powerful. Almost a mild barbecue flavour, almost ketchupy, but with no tang; a hint of soy sauce. A genuine Trappist product brewed within the walls of Scourmount Abbey, under the control of the Trappist community, from yeast isolated by Fr. Theodore and pure water from the abbey's wells. Secondary fermentation in the bottle (from the yeast), neither filtered nor fermented. A major part of the sales revenue is used by the monks to support charitable works.
