| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Apr 19, 2009 Pours off brown with thin white head that doesn’t last. Nose is faint with some cola aromas. Palate is very cola-like as well, also with the carbonation, and some faint rum like spices in the background.
Probably the most uninspiring example of this style I’ve ever had.

I was just becoming a beer enthusiast when BM released this. Malted maple aroma... Deep caramel, medium body; little fizzy; thinner head than avg. I taste maple. I wouldn’t quite say all filler and no killer. . . Great brew for working a puzzle when it’s snowflakes outside. Try 1/2 blue moon, 1/2 full moon for a special dose. Having it on tap at Coors is a blessing! yobdoog (1500), Woodridge NY, New York, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 6, 2009 Sweet with some spice. Candy sugar is noticable. Pretty bland for a Dubbel. Beerdedone (1885), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA

Aroma is sweet malts, toasted grains, caramel and some light fruit. Flavor was sweet with dark toasted malts, caramel sweetness, brown sugar and some winter spiciness.

| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Apr 2, 2009 Pours a dark brown with little to no head. Aroma was weak roasted malts, wheat, and yeast with hints of dark fruit and maybe cinnamon. The flavor was a weaker version of the aroma, very sweet. I am not a huge fan of this beer, but I wouldn’t turn down a free one. SudsMcDuff (1703), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Mar 21, 2009 Updated: Mar 22, 2009Beautiful amber color, delicate lacing. Sweet aroma, slightly fruity. Smooth flavor, mellow but warm. A nice treat. This beer is mis-classified, by the way. The bottle states, "An abbey ale," and the alcohol content is 5.8% - This shouldn’t be compared to abbey Dubbels, because it’s clearly not trying to be one. Those comparing it to an abbey dubbel are "doin’ it wrong," as it were. MattShizzle (385), Bernville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Mar 19, 2009 Bottle - from sampler pack. Dark brown color. Little to no aroma. This is no abbey dubbel. Maybe a brown ale. Not sweet, strong or all that malty.
