No 9 - Orval

Time for a real classic -  I remember tasting this for the first time in the late 80`s - and it have been a perennial favourite since then. The nose is very deep and elegant with notes of orange peel, sweet flowers and a cool note of honey. Very deep and expressive. Lovely.

The taste is cool, elegant and intense with a lovely bitter feeling that cleanses the palate and makes it ready for more! Very long and racy. A superb beer!
