元々「スペシャル」と呼ばれていた ロシュフォール8 は1950年代半ばに遡ります。その名前は「ベルギー式度数」での原麦汁濃度に由来しています。
深い茶色をしており、風味は力強く複雑で、しっかりとしたボディがその強さを支えています。香りには、フレッシュなフルーツ、スパイス、レザー、イチジクの捉えどころのないノートがあります。
That deep brown pour alone tells you it's serious business, and the body really does hold up firm from first sip to last. Complex without being heavy, this is the kind of beer you slow down for.
The mid-1950s origin story caught my eye, but it's the firm body that keeps me coming back—each sip has a weight to it that balances the vigorous, complex flavors perfectly. Worth every penny for a cold evening.
That deep brown pour is exactly as described—the body is firm and the flavor keeps unfolding sip after sip, like a proper Trappist should. The complexity hits you right away but it somehow gets better as it warms. I've had a lot of Belgian beers and this one stands out for how balanced it is.
