Het Kapittel Watou Dubbel

Brewed by Van Eecke
Style: Abbey Dubbel
Poperinge-Watou, Belgium

The aroma is quite sweet with notes of yeast, prunes, and raisins. The color is an opaque deep red and it has a beutiful lasting light brown head. The flavor is also very sweet with notes of brown suger, yeast, prunes, raisins, and hints of wood. The end is dry from hops but also with hints of coriander and coffee bitterness. Compared to the strength the mouthfeel is a little thin.

(Bottle 33 cl) Dark brown with a fine, stable head. Some roasted, caramellish notes but still with an almost tobacco-like dryness. Notes of both licorice, chocolate and perhaps even...coffee? Lovely not too sweet Dubbel. 221097 and 170598

33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden amber with a diminishing tan head. Caramel malt and yeasty-fruity aroma. Classic caramel malt flavoured beer, shows a distinct yeast note which carries both a light fruit accent but also a light metallic edge. Smooth mouthfeel and a fullbodied alcohol feel. Ends with a solid caramel and fruity mix and warming alcohol feel.

Bottled at Belgobaren, Stockholm. Hazy copper colour, rich creamy head. Yeasty earthy nose that softly transfroms itself to minerals, almond and melon. Sweet and very soft, near full bodied. Later on another soft transition occurs - this time to grapefruit, syrup and salt. Finally it gradialy turns into resiny pine needle bitterness. A sensationally seemless beer that weaves your mouth into a silky web full of complex flavours. Too sweet, but who cares? This is art!
