A dry-hopped Belgian pale ale brewed with wild Brettanomyces yeast at Brasserie d'Orval, within Abbaye Notre-Dame d'Orval near Florenville in Belgium's Province of Luxembourg. The brewery is one of only a handful authorised to carry the Authentic Trappist Product label. Orval is dry-hopped with Hallertau, Styrian Goldings and Strisselspalt hops during a three-week maturation, then bottled with Brettanomyces, which continues to develop flavour in the bottle. The grain bill uses pale malt with a small proportion of caramel malt, plus candi sugar. It is best poured into a wide-mouthed chalice or Orval goblet at cellar temperature. Bottles may be aged for one to five years.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Orange peel, green apple, yeasty spice, freshly baked bread and earthy, leathery, barnyard-like Brettanomyces complexity.

Palate

Bright citrus and dark fruit, firm dry body, pronounced hop bitterness, gingered white tea, dry clove and faint white grape.

Finish

Long, dry and decisively bitter, with lingering limestone minerality and zesty hop resin.
