Category: Øl
I motsetning til alle de andre, lager Orval Trappist-klosteret bare ett øl for allmennheten. Det har en intens aromatisk og tørr karakter. Mellom første og andre gjæring er det også en ekstra tørrhumleprosess. Gjennom dette får ølet sin utpregede humlearoma og ekstra tørre smak.
The dry finish is exactly what I look for in a Trappist ale, and the aromatic kick between fermentations really sets it apart. Poured one after dinner and it held its complexity down to the last sip.
I've had a lot of Trappist beers over the years, but this single-batch approach really stands out—the dry, aromatic finish is something you don't forget. The way the second fermentation plays into every sip, it's the kind of beer you want to slow down with, not just chug.
That dry, aromatic finish really carries through every sip — it’s not heavy or syrupy like most Trappist ales I’ve tried. The single-batch focus clearly pays off, because the flavor stays sharp and consistent from the first pour to the last.
