May 1, 2009 Bottle sampled at SF International Beer Fest. Pretty average Belgian dubbel. Dark amber color with a cream-colored head. Aroma is malt, dark fruits, caramel, and brown sugar. Flavor is more of the same, with raisin/fig notes and some banana/clove. Medium body with a dry finish.

Apr 24, 2009 650 ml bottle. Pours a cherry brown with a creamy, light tan head. Boozy fruit, yeast, raisin, mineral notes, and a little vegtativeness on the nose. Medium carbonation with a medium mouthfeel. The alcohol is pretty prominent in this one. Fruity on the palate, with apricot playing the dominant role. Slight bitterness, spice, and a taste I can’t quite place. A touch of mineral and earth? Medium-long finish with the fruit flavor lingering.

Apr 16, 2009 Amber pour with a half-inch off-white head. Malty nose with a dash of fruit. Malty flavor, slightly tangy, with a touch of dried figs and candi sugar. Not a bad approximation of the style. Pretty tasty.

Apr 13, 2009 Bomber from Hi-Time. Pours a brownish amber with a decent off-white head providing okay lacing. Aromas of dark fruity esters, some spice and candy/bubblegum typical for the style. Flavor follows suit, dark fruit (raisin), slight clovey spice with the brown sugar finish. Mouthfeel was fairly heavy, but seemed a bit lighter for the style. Overall this is a pretty good dubbel, and for the price, is worth picking up.
