Brewer's Description: "Named Cinq Cents in 75 cl (25.4 fl.oz.) bottles, this beer with its typical golden colour, its slightly hazy appearance and its fine head is especially characterised by its aroma which results from an agreeable combination of fresh hops and yeast. The beer's flavour, as sensed in the mouth, comes from the smell of hops: above all it is the fruity notes of muscat and raisins that give this beer a particularly attractive aroma. The aroma complements the touch of bitterness. There is no acidity, but an after-bitterness which melts in the mouth. This top fermented Trappist beer, refermented in the bottle, is not pasteurised."

Complex but easy to drink, which I can't say for the red or blue labels. Nice combination of fruit and spices, but not too spicy. And easily available where I live! Yay!

Can't say anything I had that day was better than this, but some were as good.

Probably my favorite beer ever. User: sloshed  (2616 reviews/ratings)  Added: 08-05-2004 Location: Portland, Oregon Type: Tap/Keg Rating: Had this beer at the Horse Brass in Portland. It has a smooth slightly hoppy flavor with a slightly pepper and mint finish. Good beer.
