**Known for:** The other answer to Westvleteren 12. Rochefort 10 (11.3% ABV) is ranked alongside it in blind tastings — and is far more obtainable.

**History:** Trappist brewing at Saint-Rémy since 1899. Three beers — Rochefort 6, 8 and 10 — named by density, not strength. The 10 is the one: dark fruit, chocolate, dates, a finish that goes on for minutes. Frequently ranked top-three in world beer rankings alongside Westvleteren 12. For anyone who wants that level of quality without phoning a Belgian abbey, Rochefort 10 is the answer.
