Without doubt my favourite of all the trappist beers. Apparently "as they say" Orval is the only trappist ale which is available as it`s original form, the original recipe just as Father Trappiste intended.Though there are other interpretations that the monks provide.....but that is another story. Three Orval in a decent glass always works for me, Keep the faith. Keep it Trappist!!

Going to pick up a couple of bottles this week, thanks Wenchie! There is a lot more going on in the flavor profile provided by the yeast (I've read up to 11 different strains are used in the three different fermentation stages this beer undergoes). The dedication of the Trappist brewers is to be commended. Me thirsty... Oh, it has been quite a long time since I have sipped an Orval.
