Rochefort (6) 330ML
ABV 7.5%
The brewery is located inside the Abbey of Notre-Dame de Saint-Remy, near the town of Rochefort, and has been brewing beer since 1595. There are approximately 15 monks resident at the monastery. The monks are very secretive about the brewing process, and the brewery is not open to the public. Like many strong Belgian beers, those produced at Rochefort age well and can be cellared for a number of years.The water for the beers is drawn from a well located inside the monastery walls.As with all other trappist breweries, the beer is only sold in order to financially support the monastery and some other good causes. The monks will not increase production based on demand or profit motives, but only enough to support themselves, resulting in a fairly limited supply of beer.
Reddish colour, almost like autumn leaves, very consistent texture with a slightly spicy aroma and an intense taste of caramel, fruit, and hints of raisins. It is only brewed about once per year, representing approximately 1% of total beer production from the brewery.
