Huge yeast aroma, very bready. Flavor is belgian yeast, some spice, fruit, brown sugar and a load of carbonation. Not as malty as I’d hoped.

Dec 8, 2009 Bottle, 33cl. Pours translucent reddish brown., with tan head. Aroma of sweet dark fruits and caramel, with roasted malt; taste similar, with liquorice notes. Not a bad commercial attempt at a dubbel, but lacking somewhat that certain je ne sais quoi.

Nov 26, 2009 Bottle. Rather light brown pour with thick frothy head. The color is a little too light for dubbel but the classical aromas are present, ripe fruit good dark malts and caramel and a hint of licorice. Taste is very much the same only a little watery. Overall welldone.
