Spicy aroma, complex mix of coriander, caramel, nuts, wood, yeast. Low, almost none of fruit aroma. Sweet (but not too much) light roasted malt. Dry spicy and carbonised aftertaste. Slightly sour. Unclear dark amber body, creamy big head. High carbonation.

A great brew, pours a dark red/brown with a fine fine head. Tastes of berries with an almost (and i mean almost) spicy finish. Would recommend to anyone for an easily drinkable , yet unique brew.

A mysterious brew. A deep, copper colour with a huge, frothy head. Very hoppy bitterness with strong aroma of plums and berries. Should be drunk while seated in a small room, while facing East and listening to Led Zeppelin’s Physical Graffiti.

330mL bottle from Regional. Pours deep red/amber, I got quite a bit of sediment. Off white head. Nose is full of fruity esters. Apples and berries with a nice spicy malt. Very fruity flavour as well, dark cherry dominates and tangy spicy malt sits in the background. Bready, fruity finish. I really enjoyed this one, a decisively drinkable dubbel.

After one week of drinking beers outside of my house I had this one from my own stack. To pour al beers at 10 degrees makes comparing to the competition more honest. This brew Is dark brown with a subtle and fine head. The taste was not sweet nor dry, not very hopish nor very spiced. This beer didnt suprise me at all. But its a dubbel all right, only because it says so on the bottle. Not one of these beers that make you lock yourself in a convent for. Then again, that should never be the reason.

Enjoyed via 750ml bottle. Pours a medium to dark brown with ivory head. Initial nose was one of a combination of tropical fruits (a little banana perhaps?) and dark fruits (prunes and raisons). The beer flowed nicely onto the palate, tasting of a candied sweetness. The finish was a nice blend of sweet and dry. Overall, a very nice dubbel. Well crafted and well presented.
