St. Bernardus Abt 12

4.3/5

AROMA
8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20

11.2 ounce bottle. Pours deep red brown color with a lot of suspension in the glass with a nice sized tan head with good retention that reduces to a cap. The head practically shot out of the bottle when I opened it and kept coming. Aromas of dark fruits and spices with some alcohol. Taste of strong dark fruits and a bit of chocolate and caramel, with alcohol warming on the finish. The taste of this beer has a very strong lingering presence on the finish. Moderate carbonation. A lot of complex flavors going on in this beer. Very big Belgian and very interesting. Amazing beer! Will definitely pick this up again.

One of the best Belgian style beers in the market right now, and fairly easy to find.
