$11.00
Belgian Strong Dark Ale
Untappd: 3.88 / 154,224 ratings (August 2020)
9.2% / 22 IBU
Originally called “Spécial,” Rochefort 8 dates to the mid-1950s. The name comes from the original gravity in “Belgian degrees.” Deep brown color; the flavor is vigorous and complex, with firm body to support the strength. The aroma has elusive notes of fresh fruit, spice, leather, and figs.
“Big creamy with very good retention. Attractive toffee coloured brown. Fairly standard nose for the style, fruity and sweet, dark malts. Complex palate as expected: cold tea early then big sweet liquered malts, spice and aniseed.” (Slowbeer)
