Ename Dubbel

Brewed by Brouwerij Roman
Style: Abbey Dubbel
Oudenaarde, Belgium

A thick malty pint,very gassy,a bitch of a brew,two in a session would be too much for me.

Malty aroma with some tropical fruit. Some toast in the malty, sweetish flavor. Hints of licorice and alcohol. Medium bodied. Has more bite as the other Ename beers.

Murky brown with scarlet hidden in the depths. Soft frothy head which whips up on pouring, but then settles into Brussels lace. Dark malty aroma - brown bread. Mouthfeel has usual bottled beer harsh carbonation. Difficult to get fully at the flavours through the prickling bubbles. Some red fruits in there, some acid, some tree bark. Acceptable enough, but nothing special. As Kasta says, let it settle a while before drinking.

Dark chestnut beer; cream-brown head. Aroma of dark bread, Pumpernickel. Bitter from dark malts on sweet base, without any refinement. Maybe some licorice.Medium-filled, no aftertaste. Not very rewarding. If short of choice, however...

Has a nice deep reddish/brownish color and a splendid malty aroma. The flavor first comes sweet and ends up with a taste of lemon

Slightly hazy bright dark reddish color. Sweet malt and nuts in the nose followed by raisins and other varying dark fruits. A touch of alcohol and a light sweetness are also present. At the front of the body is a light spritzy and a hint of dust that indicates its age. Nice warming alcohol carries into a sweet fruitiness which is quickly attacked by a bitter yeastiness. Dries out towards the end with a light hoppiness. Nice pleasant dubbel, maybe a bit old, but has come together okay.

An unclear amber beer with a fine head. The aroma is a lovely malty one. The flavor too is lovely sweet malty and a little sour.

Almost black colour, brownish head. Little bit spicy aroma. Bitter , little bit spicy flavour. I expected something special of this beer because it is an abbey ale, but actuallu is was quite a disappointment. At least at first I thought af a pilsener with a bit intenser taste. Though, after a while I also perceived some sweetish tastes. An average ale.
