I had an Orval Trappist Ale last night. I’ve had it before. The Red Fez serves it in bottles (and with the actual Orval chalice). Orval is one of the seven Trappist breweries and this is the only beer they make. It pours a cloudy orangey amber color with a nice white head (I mis-poured and got too much head. Luckily, it was into a huge tulip glass). Smells of spices and a little bit of funk. The taste is really good. There’s a nice blend of funky sourness, spice, and fruit in the flavor. The beer has a nice amount of carbonation and goes down nice and easy. This is one top notch beer. Look for the bowling pin shaped bottle.
