Testing St Bernardus

When Per turned 25 we visited Akkurrat for a couple of beers. The last two beers I tried before heading on home was these two:

St Bernardus Triple (Bottle) 8%
It poured a hazy golden liquid with a creamy white foam that left lots of lacing.

Smell of yeast, dried fruit, wood and honey. The honey scent was quite strong.

The mouth feel was semi-smooth with just a bit of roughness. It had a medium body and low bitterness. Tasted similar to the smell and the most dominant flavour was definitely honey. Lots of sweetness.

Very nice beer, one of the best triples I have ever tried.
Total: 4,3/5

St Bernardus Abt 12 (Bottle) 10,5%
It poured a hazy brown-amber liquid with a small beige foam that left very little lacing.

It had a smell of figs, wood and nuts.

It had a semi-smooth mouth feel, medium body and low bitterness. Tasted of red wine, figs, druid fruit and nuts.

Also a very nice beer but the triple was better.
Total: 3,9/5

Both of these where very affordable at 78 and 88 sek each and the triple became a favourite amongst my friends. I went to the bathroom to come back and see four of them sitting with a glass each.

Sorry about the lack of pictures I forgot to put the memory card in my camera.
