Name: Westmalle Trappist AleBrewer: someone... - Belgium
Style: Trappist Ale
Alcohol Content: 9.5%
Review: I have not had the best experience with Trappist Ales, esp the sour ones. Westmalle is excellent however. Cloudy gold color with good head from some of the bottle fermentation. A citrusy yeasty aroma also masks some of the alcohol. The flavor is predictably citrusy and yeasty as well with a slight alcoholic bite. The alcohol content really seems to add a slight bite to the beer which I think pairs well with the rich malt. Overall very solid.
Rating: 4.25/5
