Ok so the other night I had the orgasmically delicious Rochefort Trappistes 10 and I just happened to be nibbling on candied orange peels covered in dark chocolate. May I venture this to be the best combination especially for that time of the month. The aroma is boozy dried apricots/juicy prune and the mouthfeel is so smooth on the palate that the 11.35 abv is dangerously well-hidden. The dark fruity notes of this beer play exquisitely well off the sweet, bitter and citrusy nature of the candy. I would also recommend a sour ale, perhaps the Flemish Red Duchess de Bourgogne as an alternative.
