Jan 25, 2009 Lacks hop, but not a bad dubbel. I thought they had lost their Trappist rating! I don’t believe they can still call their beers Trappist beer.

Jan 20, 2009 [33cl bottle from Morrisons.] Reddish brown with a dense cream head, rather lively when first poured; rather sickly aroma, with caramel and yeast to the fore; really nice chewy malt flavours with lots of caramel and nuts and a trace of bubble gum; light fruity finish - not over sweet. Very pleasant apart from the aroma.
