| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 13, 2004 Tasting notes aren’t so good on this one, as it was the last beer I had in a very long day of tasting. I can make out the part where it says "I love flying fish" but I’m not sure if it meant the brewery or the fish that were disguised as birds. So somehow, I’m going to play with the numbers so it comes up with the 4.0 that’s in my notebook. argo0 (6907), Washington DC, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 5, 2004 Clear brown body topped by minimal beige head. Aroma is candy sugar sweet, raisin, toffee, some orange, light cinnamon. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, raisin. Watery light-medium body -- hides the alcohol well.

A very tasty beer. scottk (8), Norwalk, Connecticut, USA does not count | 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 5, 2004 Dark brown in color with a pleasent aroma with coffee and malty hints.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 29, 2004 Bottle. Poured dark mahogany color with garnet highlights in the light and a thick off white head that settled slowly and left nice lacing. Aroma is rich and appealing, molasses, coffee, figs and yeasty sweetness. Flavor is nice, sweet and fruity, chocolate notes, spice and a lingering dry finish. A pleasant treat tonight!

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 22, 2004 Poured a nice light brown with a thick fizzy gead that didn't last. Aroma was mildy sweet with caramel and brown sugar. Medium bodied mouthfeel. Nuts, caramel, spices, and earth tones on the tongue. Not exactly what I'd consider a good abbey dubbel, nevertheless, it was a decent beer. beerslayer (753), New Jersey, USA
