Aug 30, 2007 Honey and malt nose, mildly hoppy, copper, pours a fine toffee head. Taste is alcohol , big malt, soft bitterness. Light bodied, sweet, nice mouthfeel. Quite nice! Thanks Dave Steen.

Aug 24, 2007 Aroma of dark fruits and malts. Deep ruby color with a white head that filmed immediately. Medium bodied with very mild carbonation. The flavor starts with the sweetness of candi, follows with, dare I say it, prune (or at least really dark plum), and now some definite heat is present. Caramel pops up a bit. The finish is not really all that sweet, but there is not much to balance except for bits of yeasty spiciness.

Aug 22, 2007 The double is not anywhere as good as the triple - for some reason every time I’ve had the Double it’s tasted like fish. The triple tastes like heaven.

Aug 6, 2007 25-ounce bottle with faux-wax dipped seal. Immediate vinous aroma turning roasty and malty with banana hints here and there. Slightly sweet brown sugary notes breathe as well. Lots of earthiness in the aroma, which is very nice. Moderately hazy opaque garnet-mahogany color with quickly dissipating small tan head. Start is slightly sweet with caramel, roasted malts and hops in the middle with touches of banana. Finishes dry. 9% alcohol content is undetectable and makes for superbly enhancing the aroma and flavor. Quite different than most other Dubbels I have had, more like a porter.
