Mar 5, 2007 Bottle, 250ml. A clear dark brown colour with a small head. A sweet, malty aroma. Taste is very malty with chocolate, bread, some raisin and a hint of spice. Moderate carbonation. A quite sweet, malty finish. After having Ciney Blonde, I wasn’t expecting much from this; but although the aroma isn’t great, the taste is pretty good. A little too sweet though.

Feb 17, 2007 Dark brown colour. Very smooth, easy drinking beer. Initially a bit bitter on the tongue but it’s followed by a sweet and slightly roasted taste and has aromas of ripe fruit.

Feb 7, 2007 Pours a brown color with ruby highlights and a thin light brown head. Aroma of malt, chocolate and nuts with a little something off and unpleasant but not too disturbing. The flavor has chocolate, nuts and malt with again that unpleasant element that feels a bit weird. The body is light to medium with a creamy texture and soft carbonation.

Jan 30, 2007 Updated: Feb 4, 2007Sugary, kiddies’ jelly fruit snout. Glassily clear red pour with a thinning slick of bubbles. Thin and watery for a Dubbel. Possibly slightly licoriced. Some horribly stale burnt sugar/cardboard notes. Partially redeemed by some pleasant whiskeyish graininess and aromatic bread in the finish, but it’s too little too late. Far from great Bruin/Dubbel.

Dec 30, 2006 Bottle. My same comments from the blond: I was worried about it tasting mass-produced but I was pleasantly surprised. A good bier I would order again. Nothing special but a good quality option.
