Abbaye des Rocs’s Saison

Abbaye des Rocs’s Saison

33cl bottle, yellow cap. Lovely mid-golden pour with a half-inch head. Average retention, some nice lace. Nose offers simple grains, a touch of hops. Plenty of fruit in those initial tastes with a lot of citrus. However, it’s not sharp or tart, but...

Black Rocs 1979

Black Rocs 1979

L1933 00909, 17/01/22 Well, I don’t know. What has become of the once great l’Abbaye des Rocs? Some things as good as ever, most things not, and then there’s this. Is it a stout? Sort of. Is it a coffee stout? Absolutely not. Is it a 'flavored...

Abbaye des Rocs Spéciale Noel

Abbaye des Rocs Spéciale Noel

33 cl bottle. Finest Belgian Beers. Lot L2006 02369 26/10/2022 Turbid brown, murky Duddel like pour, with a decent but poorly maintained head. Nose offers a few, light fruit, and bitter notes. Something similar breaks across the plate early. This...

Blanche Des Honnelles [Brasserie Des Rocs Blanche Double]

Blanche Des Honnelles [Brasserie Des Rocs Blanche Double]

$7.00 via mail from Brusin' Ale, Asheville, NC, USA. 750 mL black foiled and capped. Blue and silver notes accent the usual ABdR label. Presentation is nice. Minor gusher. Note: This is marked "Best Before end of 2008", so may be a touch past its...

Abbaye Des Rocs Grand Cru Belgian Special Brown Ale

Abbaye Des Rocs Grand Cru Belgian Special Brown Ale

Additional notes 04/27/24 (Pictured) BB 2014 bottle purchased on a recent Michigan trip. A gamble that I could simply not resist. (Pictured below) Carbonation is magnificent for the age. Decent pop, nice head. Great for the age with plenty of...

La Montagnarde [Brasserie Des Rocs Ambree]

La Montagnarde [Brasserie Des Rocs Ambree]

Notes added 09/04/21 New look labels that have been a round for a few years now, pictured here. In its sixteen year evolution since the original review in 2005, it still feels ‘mild’ - I stand by that word. The BSDA style classification looks...

Brasserie Des Rocs Triple Impériale

Brasserie Des Rocs Triple Impériale

Notes added: 08/27/21 750 mL bottle with the newer, but paradoxically old school labels (pictured), from Finest Belgian Beers. 13/04/23 as the date, L2150 17.16 as the lot. Having been really disappointed with a couple of recent bottles of newer...

Blanche Des Honnelles [Brasserie Des Rocs Blanche Double]

Nounette [Brasserie Des Rocs Blonde]

Nice presentation with the very attractive yellow label. Poured into the Duvel tulip (which happens to be very appropriate) with a cloudy orange color, a fantastic head and the yeast sediment finishes the pour by dropping on to the white head with...

Abbaye Des Rocs [Brasserie Des Rocs Brune]

Abbaye Des Rocs [Brasserie Des Rocs Brune]

Notes added 05/04/24 Took a chance on a Best Before 2013 bottle on a recent trip to MI, and was guardedly optimistic. Pictured underneath. It came through big time. Wonderful dark copper body, with a creamy, tan colored, fine bubbled head....

Blanche Des Honnelles [Brasserie Des Rocs Blanche Double]

Abbaye Des Rocs Grand Cru Belgian Special Brown

On-tap, The Brick Store, Decatur, GA, USA. Very red/copper color, with a small but beautiful head, some light lacing and served in the correct glassware, this looks like a dream. Very, very complex. I get so many contrasting sensations I find it...
