Trappistes Rochefort 8 & 10 | Brasserie de Rochefort | Beer Review (Live) | #418-419

In today's live review, I will be joined by fellow BeerTubers (links to their channel can be found below) to review two beers from Brasserie de Rochefort, their Trappistes Rochefort 8 and Trappistes Rochefort 10. The former is a Belgian Strong Dark Ale, while the latter is a Belgian Quadrupel. Both of these beers are considered classics within the style, so doing a proper review with some BeerTubing friends seemed like it would be a lot of fun. As always, feel free to chat along while we review these beers, as we will definitely be reading and checking comments consistently. We hope you enjoy the reviews!

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. (Trappistes Rochefort 10) - Dominant impressions of latte coffee with powerful chocolate aromas in the nose. The alcohol esters are enveloped with hints of autumn wood, citrus zest (orange, lemon) and freshly baked biscuits. The initial taste is sweetly sinful. Beer and chocolate trapped into one single glass, a liquid milky draught with a backbone of bitter malt. The alcohol warms the throat and, in the finish, you will pick up traces of cloves, citrus, orange and mocha. The heaviest of the Rochefort beers, the 10 is a quadrupel style beer and can be recognized by its blue label.
