Dec 19, 2009 Bomber courtesy of Santa. Pours a clear red with a thin, tan head that dissipates quickly and leaves no lacing. Little carbonation. Aroma is Belgian waffles with butter and strawberries. Yum. Taste is Vermont maple syrup. Flat, watery on the palate. Sort of uninteresting but easy to drink. Unoffensive. Misses the big candi sugar and yeast notes in Abbey Dubbels. Lacks a creamy body. Would like to try this unfiltered.

Dec 19, 2009 Bottle. Pours clear copper, with an off white head. Aroma is malt, brown sugar, and fruit. Flavor is brown sugar, fruit, malt, and spice. Body seems a little for the style.

Dec 1, 2009 dark brown with quickly vanishing head, strong nose of sweet malt, not your typical dubbel nose. low carbonation for the style. flavor with no bitterness, mild belgian esters are overwhelmed by an amazing amount of malt sweetness for a dubbel, maybe some spices are intermixed, but they dont come through well, a ton of residual sweetness. the beer tastes a whole lot more like a doppelbock than a belgian dubbel, totally out of style and not enjoyable regardless

Nov 22, 2009 I would eat this with chinese food because it tastes like tea. Not real good.

Nov 15, 2009 bottle thanks to muckjoe! Pours a murky redish brown with a medium tan head. Brown sugar and maple syrup nose with some chocolate malt seeping through. Sweet and mildly tart with sour cherry and a sweet carmel malt ends bittersweet with more brown sugar. Nice brew, thanks again Joe!

Mar 25, 2009 22 oz. bottle via trade with Brigadier - Pours a clear deep mahogany color with a 3/4 finger thick light tan head. Light lacing. Aroma is sweet toasted malt, spice, and esters. Flavor is sweet malt and esters. Medium body. Doesn’t have that big yeast presence I’ve come to expect with most Belgian ales. A nice beer. Thanks Nathan.

Mar 20, 2009 Fairly thin head. Nice dark copper color. Aroma is pretty concentrated chestnuts and nutmeg. Flavor is lightly sweet with a pretty dark roasted malt aspect for the style. A few hints of DMS on the finish, otherwise, pretty nice.

Jan 16, 2009 Pours a copper color with an off-white head. Aroma is of caramel and roasted malts, with some dark fruits, nutmeg, clove, and candied sugar. Flavor wasn’t really as strong as I was hoping but there’s enough there. Malty flavor of the caramel and roasted malts dominate. Hints of spice and candied sugar on the finish. Decent for an ohio brewed dubbel.
