Aug 16, 2008 Bottle, as Koningshoeven Dubbel. Pours a reddish brown, with a thin tan head. Faint aroma of sweet fruit. Flavor is brown sugar, toffee, dark fruits, and a bit of yeasty tanginess. Delicious. A phenomenal Abbey Dubbel; I find its lukewarm rating to be quite puzzling.

Aug 13, 2008 Poured dark ruby with 2.5 cm dark tan head.
Aroma is "holy banana smell" with an addition of water pipes. Which worked for me, to tell the truth.
The mouthfeel is slick with lower than average carbonation.
The taste is banana, toffee, cookie dough, with a touch of high alcohol warming. The aftertaste is strong with unsweetened cocoa and grapefruit.
Awesome.
