Deep brown, red highlights, quickly fading head. Aroma is spicy, but faint. Flavor starts off like mulled cider, moving into a long nutty finish. A bit of chocolate, toffee, and vanilla lies beneath. Lively palate, the beer seems more to bubble off the tongue than need to be swallowed.

Sampled on draught FINALLY: pours a semi hazey copper colour wiht a full beige head which quickly settles down. Aroma is pleasent, geneorous of caramel and soft hops, little bit of bready malts too. TAste is pleasent, not quite as heavy as i thought it would be. Rich in dark fruit and notes of toffee and licorice.

Dark red color and no head. Sweet/spicy aroma. You can taste the alcohol in this one, but it works well as far as the spiciness goes. I wouldn’t mind ordering a glass or three of this one.

On tap at Ale Asylum. Dark copper color with thin white head. Aroma is of Belgian spice, light alcohol nose and dark fruit. Taste is of Belgian spice, fig, raisins, and roasted malt backbone. Medium carbonation. Alcohol is there, but not overbearing. Well done, but lacks complexity.

On tap at the brewpub on 6/22/07: Pours a transparent deep copper with a thin ring of wispy white head. Aroma of doughy bready sweet dark caramel Belgian malt and yeast. Flavor of sweet biscuity caramel and toffee with good authentic yeasty complexity and mouthfeel toward a slightly drier finish with a touch of clove spice. A nice Belgian Dubbel.

On draught at the Ale Asylum brewpub in Northern Madison, Wisconsin. Pours a semi-clear dark amber brew with a fast dissolving, creamy off-white head that leaves behind a light film and ring. Aroma of caramel malt, a slight banana, brown sugar and a touch of alcohol. Taste is medium bodied, very slight carbonation, semi-sweet character with a dry roasted malt flavor with some roasted nut, brownsugar and caramel. Finish has a slight brown sugar aftertaste with a lingering malty flavor and even a little alcohol warmth.

This dubbel pours red/brown and shows notes of sweet ness on the original nose and then this sweetnes belnds into a spicy citrus/tree fruit flavor. It has great texture and is excellent.
