| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 29, 2006 Dark brown, almost cola like with a nicely formed thin head. Meaty, malty nose with some candied sugars. Fairly similar to taste but again intensity errs on the side of caution and finishes a touch weak. Quite fizzy to my palate. (e3.0 @ Café Arendnest)

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 25, 2006 Pours dark, cloudy, reddish/brown with a nice tan head. Strong yeast and dark fruit aromas. Upfront yeast and fruit flavors, slight spice, with nice slight hop bitterness on the finish. Palate is medium, well balanced, creamy, and crisp. aenimopiate (144), The United States of Texas, Texas, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 22, 2006 high alcohol content, but that’s to bwe expected with these types of beers. The alcohol didn’t overwhelm, and the pour was as smooth as the flavor. Although I liked the quad more, this one is a great beer in its own right. I recommend you try this one, but make sure you grab a quad to complare. Kinz (2215), Glen Allen, Virginia, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 19, 2006 Deep red with amber hints, nice head fades slowly, bordering on creamy. Aroma is of fresh baked bread. Flavor is also of freshly baked, dark bread, with some faint, undefined dark fruit undertones. Maybe cherries? The sheer depth of the flavor is nice, perhaps not the most complex, but clearly rich and satisfying. I liked this considerably more than the tripel, as I think the bread flavors hang better with a dubbel than a tripel. Good stuff. tomthompson89 (1489), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Nov 18, 2006 Updated: Jul 10, 2009Cloudy medium dark brown hue under a light fizzy cap. Aroma of lightly honeyed malts leads into like flavor - flavor augmented with some deep fruity tones and a pleasant crisp foretongue carbonation and subdued hint of lingering hop bitterness. Full and rich, like something between chocolate and ripe fruit. A solid 14 overall. ** slight addnote ** further sampling, surprisingly solid body, a wonderful note of apple amidst the rich malts and fig/raisin flavors. Kind of dopplebok like in the wet hay / honey character. nice beer! I’m partial to this brewer’s products.
