Grimbergen Double (Dubbel)

Brewed by Brasserie Union (Alken-Maes / Heineken)
Style: Abbey Dubbel
Jumet, Belgium

Brown with medium brown head. Aroma of chocolate malt, toffee and cloves. Sweet taste of fruits, banana, chocolate and caramel.

Delightful chocolate like aroma with a hint of smokiness when the brew is consumed. A very good deep brown color with a hazy tan head. Tantalizing tart with a familiar taste of bittering hops used. Tasted like it needs a bit more time to condition, but nonetheless, it a high quality beer that can be enjoyed by all.

Bottle from Palm Tavern. Pours a brown-red. Smells of sour apples and tastes almost the same. A bit sharpe and sour to enjoy all the time, but glad I tried it.

Pours dark brown. Smells sweet, taste sweet, and finishes sweet. Overall a sweet ass beer, not something I’d drink all the time.

Bottle. Pours a light haze red brown. Aroma is super sweet of fruit and hints of alcohol. Flavor is sweet, well carbonated and smooth. Good, but not a sesh beer .

dark-brown colour, large white head. A bit sweet, mild, with a metallic aftertaste.

Pour was chestnut brown with very small head, but a nice foam which coated the beer throughout. Aroma was of musty fruit and yeast. The flavor was similar, musty and overripe fruit...reminded me of biting into a gooey banana or past its prime apple. Some balancing bitterness and a good level of carbonation. I can’t say that I found this one all that pleasant.

On tap at New World Brewery in Ybor City. pours a dark brownish red with a one finger white-tan head that lingers. Aroma: sweet, hints of caramel and toffee. Flavor: sweetness, ripe fruit, caramel. Somewhat quick, watery finish.
