33 cl, bottle label says "7% tripel ale", but this has got be the dubbel inside: Opaque, dark brown with a lasting thin coating of creamy frosting. Aroma of toffee, raisins, brown sugar, earthy spices and some funky tartness. Flavor is similar, plus some raspberry and peach. The finish has some wood and hints of cocoa, but the end seems to fall flat somehow compared to the rich aroma and front tastes. Still a very nice brew. Medium body is watery, smoothly carbonated and lightly acidic-dry.

Bottle. Nice marron brown. Power when opening the bottle. Creamy, nice finish of ripe fruit. A hint of dates, that lasts quite long.

Bottle. Pours a brown body with a tan head. Deep malt body with some dark fruity flavors raisin and overripe fruits. Some coriander and grassy hops. Spicy yeast good brew.

Poured hazy mahogany brown with a deep rocky head that lasted forever, and left great lacing. A strong thick film stayed on top the whole way down. Aromas of dark fruit and green apples, a bit of spiciness and generous yeast. The dark fruits first detected in the smell are defined in the taste as cherries and plums. Some caramel and toffee pek through as well. Medium to full bodied, plenty of carbonation, and the sweet fruitiness in the aftertaste is shared with a touch of hops. A nice complex beer that demands attention.

Bottled. Poured medium, murky brown with a creamy cap of beige head.. looked quite nice. The aroma picked up toasty medium-skinned fruits, caramel, and sour fruit skins paired with earth and spicy yeast.. fragrant and enjoyable. The flavor found the same fruits in both sweetness and tangy sour skins.. dry earthy and yeasty notes provided a lot of character around the edges.. sweeter finish with dry spices on the uptake. Medium-bodied and again dry on the palate with a hefty dose of creamy carbonation.. tad grainy on the finish.. flowed very well. Nice one.

Bottle. Light malty aroma of bread. The huge head is white, foamy and with a long duration. The taste is quite sour, a little bit malty. The beer is dry, medium strong with not so much carbonation.
