madsberg (4367), Bangalore, India Nov 17, 2003 Bottled: Dark amber coloured. Slightly dusty. Long lasting huge brownish head. Malt, yeast, some caramel, fruits and a bite of spices and alcahol in the nose. Sweet, fruity flavour. A little bland. Alcahol not very good hidden. Has a somewhat bananalike aftertaste.
lievenvh (13), , Belgium Sep 7, 2008 caramel, toast, brown, sparkling, tan foam, full body, average carbonation, long finish, trapez (199), Hilleroed, Denmark Sep 7, 2008 Stone bottle. Clear dark red-brown colour with almost no head. Ripe fruits aroma. Also fruits - maily raisins in taste - rather sweet. A bit alcoholic bitter aftertaste. Low carbonation. mjs (524), Helsinki, Finland Sep 3, 2008 (Draught at Old Bank, Turku, on 2008-08-29) Dark reddish brown. Clear. Hardly any head. Light malty nose. Full bodied palate with little carbonation. Chocolate, bitterness, fruitiness and slighty berry like flavours in taste. Kiwi_Jonno (41), Christchurch, New Zealand Aug 29, 2008 500mL Bottle. Pours a red beer with a fast disappearing head. Aroma of spices, with yeast and malt. Sweet beer though most Dubbels are. Tastes similar to its aroma. Cherry-Fruit flavours evident. This Dubbel seemed lacking flavour and was short finishing compared to others. Perhaps I was too wow’ed with the bottle and expected more. Very drinkable though. Skidds (180), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Aug 26, 2008 Like all trappist beers; this one is very flavourful and well balanced. Darker fruits (prunes, raisins), roasted malts, caramel, coffee. Finish is a tad bitter. Excellent
