| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 6, 2005 Bottle. Clear, dark amber colour with a large tan head. Nice aroma of malts, caramel and a little fruit. Coffee, chocolate and roasted malts in the flavour. Quite highly carbonated, medium bodied. Nice sharp bitter finish. Very good. dwyerpg (2529), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 3, 2006 Smells nice, a little raisins, looks good. A nice simple dubbel, not real heavy or sweet. Good, but not great. fiulijn (7150), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 4, 2002 Dark amber colour, with a red light; generous head. Nice aroma of malt and roasted malt, some caramel too when warmer; some alcohol. Good body, sweet malt balanced by the roasted malt and caramel. Correct bitterness ending in a pretty long palate. leaparsons (4721), Leicester, Leicestershire, England
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 19, 2003 Dark brown with a white head this beer has good, sweet chocolate aromas. Coffee and plain chocolate are to the fore in terms of flavour, whilst the finish is dry and bitter. Dubbel by numbers? Perhaps, but it got it right. GreatDane (100), Ballerup, Denmark
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 24, 2003 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 Dorqui (1359), Brescia, Italy
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 4, 2007 Updated: Sep 13, 2007Bottled 0,33L. Much creamy head, bulky and supporter of discreet persistence. Beautiful dark brown color, much fraught and impenetrable. Decidedly alcoholic aroma with pleasant flowery notes, roast malt and stum. Sweet and spiced taste, solid and fraught body with aged notes. Much harmonious and wrapping with wine cellar and aged grapes notes on the end. Thanks to Emma for this one. hughie (3053), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 8, 2008 Dark brown with a large off white head. Delightful leathery, spicy, yeasty, wet dog aroma. Taste is a bit flat in comparison. A little malty sweetness and some alcohol, but mainly a restrained dryness with a bit too much fizz.
