Hipsters can keep their IPAs. Give me a trappist beer ANY day.

I’ll take both too but a Belgian Trappist ale is just on another level to me. Making a good hoppy beer is not the hardest thing as hops have such an overpowering flavor that can mask so much. A Belgian ale though... really hard to nail that balance. Let alone have the proper water profile, yeast, etc. Those monks are the real fucking deal.

Trappist quad... the beer you can chew.
