Aug 14, 2008 Bottle… O-Town/Vero Beach Throwdown Part 8… Dark prune-colored ale with a small, creamy, khaki head. Decent retention. The earthy, fruity aroma offers leather, horse blanket and dark fruits. Medium-bodied and a little astringent with lively carbonation. Malty with lots of dark fruits and tannic bitterness. Not very sweet. Lengthy, lightly bitter, and then bone-dry finish. Thanks go out to growler for sharing this bottle!

Mar 16, 2008 Bottle shared by beastiefan2k. Black/brown beer, lightly solventy and loaded with off-flavours. There is a bit of brown sugar, a touch of bubble gum on the back. An astringent grainy harshness. There is all of the bad stuff about some Belgian yeast and very little of the good.

May 15, 2009 Sampled via 12-oz bottle during Dark Lord Day ’09 at table 1. Pours a clear dark cola brown brew with a fast dissolving off-white head that leaves behind a thin ring and some spotty lacing. Aroma of roasted dark caramel malt, a light molasses and some yeast. Taste is medium bodied, some light carbonation with a thick caramel flavor with flavors of yeast, raisin, some brown sugar and chocolate. Finish is a tad watery, slightly lighter and gritty compared to most other dubbels I’ve tried.

Feb 28, 2008 Bottle. Deep and dark chocolate red with a firm light brown head. Nice full roasty aroma. This delivers with a fully robust body, roasty, a tad ashy, darkly fruity, and sugared ... a delicious blend to warm the soul on a chilly night. This would go great with a big chunk of roast beef.
