Feb 20, 2008 Well the beer is brown. Light shines through and it is not cloudy. The head is pretty big. this beer has a pretty notable prune aroma that compliments elements of chocolate and almond toast well. The fruitiness of this one is pretty strong on first taste. Orange peel and prune. This gives way to a chocolatey caramel sweetness. I’m digging it.

Feb 20, 2008 Pours a hazy caramel which looked down right divine back lit by candle at the Blind Tiger. The flavor is bold and sweet without being imposing. Additionally, there is a flavor that I used to think was exclusive to beers actually from Belgium. Granted, they did use some Beligan products, but never have I tasted this blend of spice, pine and caramel before. Excellent brew from Brooklyn Brewery.

Feb 18, 2008 Poured a lightly hazed amber color with an off-white head. The aroma was mildly fruity (banana and apple) with a light tartness. Some brown sugar notes. The flavor matched the aroma and was nice but thin and short. Overall it was nice so I will try it again from the bottle this time.

Feb 17, 2008 Draft @ Barleys, Asheville. Pours a deep slightly cloudy brown with compact tannish head. Nose very full of bubblegum with some banana esters, rather sweet on the palate with some dark fruity characters, finishes with slight straw hop character. A noble experiment, but probably not one to try again.

Feb 15, 2008 Tap at The Belgian Room. As I let the dubbel style ale warm up, I inhaled the malty aroma that was explained a lot later with the first taste. It was a little lighter than I had expected and it was very sweet on the end with a molasses and sugar. I found it easy to drink and went on to round two without much thought as I liked the lightness of it.
