Monastic silenceOn this week’s episode of Beer Sessions Radio™, host Jimmy Carbone along with (winter, now spring!) guest co-host Anne Becera has a belated celebration of last Saturday’s first-ever Orval Day. They’re doing a vertical tasting of this amazing Trappist ale.
Local importers of Orval, Dave Rodriguez and Scott Kowalski from Merchant du Vin, are in the studio to discuss the 11 Trappist breweries in the world, among with Orval is one. Located in southern Belgium, the Monastery dates back to 1070.
Also in the studio: Michael Opalenski from B. United, Tony Forder of Ale Street News, and the “Beer Sensai” himself, Warren Monteiro.
The panel is talking about traveling the Belgian beer trail and the legend of Orval. As Warren says, your first taste of Orval is something you’ll never forget.
