🍺 Review: Saint Bernardus 6 #Beersaturday

Beerglasses

Let's talk a bit about beer glasses first...
Most beer brands have their own glasses and say their beer tastes best in those glasses.
Although I doubt that their claim is true, I do agree that the glass contributes to the experience and therefore very important when you’re drinking beer.
I have a couple of different glasses at home, but had one favorite; an artisan glass of the brewery Saint Bernard. The shape of the glass keeps the aroma in the glass and it was very comfortable. I say it was because I broke it a while ago.
But a while ago I got a nice present; my favorite glass including four of the beers of St. Bernardus.

Saint Bernardus 6

I know the beers of Saint Bernardus. I’ve had most of them and like them all. Since I received them again I decided to write a review for you. I received the 6, 8, Tripel and 12, but I’ll start with reviewing the 6.
The St. Bernardus 6 is a Double. From previous reviews you might remember that these aren’t really my favorite beers.

The beer is dark brown, almost black and formed a nice firm layer of light brown foam. The aroma (which is very well noticeable in this glass) has a scent of roasted malts.

The taste is not as bitter as I am used to with doubles but it is rather a bit sweet. There is some bitterness in the aftertaste.
There is no real strong taste, but it’s a good and easy drinkable beer with ‘just’ 6,7% alcohol.
I give it a 3 out of 5.

The 8, tripel and 12 are still left to review! I’m happy to have my favorite glass back!

Cheers!
