Mar 27, 2008 22oz bottle from Total Wine, poured into a Duval glass. Murky light brown, I see a little yeast. Small fizzy head. Smell is candi sugar, raisin and caramel with a bit of funk. Taste it classic dubbel. Up front yeast, sugar, raisin and chocolate caramels, on the back end some hops and spice. A slight touch of sour cherry comes through as it warms. This is pretty complex for a dubbel. Well done beer.

Mar 26, 2008 It pours earthy amber with a coarse light beige head. The aroma is classic Belgian ale. Sweet caramel, dark candy sugar, dried prunes, infused with a peppery element. In the mouth, it starts mildly sweet with lots of caramel, spice and apricot fruitiness. As it moves around, the mouthfeel seems light with alcohol well hidden and a good amount of carbonation playing the tongue, finishing in mild dry streak.

Mar 20, 2008 Pours a dark reddish brown color with a small to medium sized light brown head. Nose is sour, fruity, and somewhat alcoholic. Taste is a tad bitter, fruity, sweet, malty, and dry. Not a full of a taste as I usually would like but it is super smooth and has a very nice mouthfeel.

Mar 18, 2008 From thebelgianaleshop.com (european bottle version). Aroma is strong undercurrents of candi sugar, wet grass, caramel, plum. Flavor has the same qualities, complimented with a firm malt midsection. Im glad this isnt overdone with alcohol. So much character here to ruin with an obscene amount of strength. A great beer, only wish I could have it aged.

Mar 15, 2008 Pour is a brown with a large tan head. Aroma is yeast and spice with an intense candi sugar. Flavor is again candi sugar but not to the extreme as in the aroma, also i get some molasses and caramel with a touch of dark fruit. An above par example of the style and something you could sip on for a long afternoon sitting outside on a chilly night.
