330ml bottle (One Pint Pub, Helsinki, Belgian Beer Week 2008)
Reddy brown, thin head. Massive ribena waft at first, but then nutty and husky. Taste is unexpected - dry burnt malt - not the full-bodied sweet malt flavour I’d expect for a dubbel. Some wineyness and sweetness later. Also a raw grain taste. Bitter nutty finish. Pressed my buttons, but not as a dubbel, this is closer to a stout!

bottle, september 08. Clear, rubby copper color witha medium, creamy cremé head. Aroma is fruity with a caramel and banana touch. Some spice, quite restrained. Flavor is ripe fruit, bananas and a slight coffee touch. Slightly phenollic with a short earthy aftertaste. Mouthfeel is medium, some chewy malt and easy drinking but with a sudden watery finish. Ok, easy drinking dubbel that could do with a bit more personality.

Bottle, pours hazy amber with a little off-white head. Nose of malt, berries and yeast. Sweet/ sour burned malt flavour with notes of dark fruit. Rathe watery palate. Medium bodied. Ends up more dry.
