Val-Dieu Cuvée 800, with cheese.

Beer and cheese from the same abbey! A corresponding fresh grass and light yellow fruit fermentation character. The match is pretty good. Beer also has biscuit. Somewhat sweet, with a very light bitter in the finish. Quite bold for the low abv.

@tastingcraftbeer @beersofmastodon Wow that's pretty neat, never seen a place that makes both beer and their own cheeses before!

@Chrispyapple @beersofmastodon There's various abbeys that do this! La Trappe and Rochefort are two that I know of. Also, Maallust in the Netherlands (not an abbey) has a cheese maker right next door and they collaborate often.

👃🏻 Cherry chocolates. Caramel, plum.
👁️ Dark brown, clear. Copious off-white foam.
👅 Red fruit. Very rich in esters. Tiny background of roast. Fruity sweet onset, dry bitter finish. Good balance. Classic Dubbel.
