Jul 8, 2008 On the X-tap at Deschutes in PDX--Served in a snifter, poured a dark amber-brownish body with a small wispy beige head. Fruity, nutty, malty sweet nose with spicy abbey flare and a chewy, gritty bite. This is perhaps the nicest example of a Belgian I have experienced at Deschutes. Similar to St. Bernardus Abt 12. great desert brew for that end of the evening enjoyment.

Sep 2, 2008 Caramel colored and cloudy with a small head. Smell is caramel with some spice; cardamom and nutmeg. Flavor is a little watery. Sweet. Toffee, raisins, brown sugar, apples. Feels good and wet going down. Good, but I wish it had a more full flavor.

Aug 24, 2008 Winter spiced aroma of nutmeg, cinnamon, and dried oranges. Very dark brown, orange hues on the edges. Great use of the spice to compliment and support the beer, nothing fights for attention here. thinner mouthfeel than expected, gulping this was no problem.

Jul 22, 2008 Chestnut color with a frothy tan head. Classic, yeasty, earthy dubbel aromas of spices and dusty dark malts. The taste mirrors the aroma with dry malts and earthy yeast, with rootbeer sweet spices. Very nice beer here. Draft@ the Deschutes Portland location.

Aug 21, 2008 Copper with tan head. Malty sweet aroma typical of dubbel. Spicy malty flavor. Good dubbel for an American brewed beer

Aug 31, 2009 My favorite item at the brew pub out of seven beers I tried. Nice amber, brown sugar malt taste with some nutty spices and cinnamon. Creamy full body. Lightly sweet, but not too much. Surprisingly smooth and drinkable. Light carbonation. Needed a little bitterness and it would have been even better.

Aug 16, 2008 Tasted @ the Deschutes Brewery and Public House in Portland.
Brown/amber colored brew. Yeasty, malty aroma and flavor. Some spices and sugary flavor. Nice try for an abbey dubbel, but they’ve got to add the magic touch..
