Aug 27, 2007 Poured into a Leffe goblet, brown with red highlights, good head. Smells of dark malts, candy sugar and yeast. Tastes sweet at start malt overall, then burnt coffee and liquorice, yeast too. Lightly bitter at the end.
A "simple" dubbel, easy to drink but nothing more.

Aug 24, 2007 This was my introduction to Belgian beer while I was on a business trip to Luxembourg. And the bartender let me bring the Leffe goblet glass back. As such, it has a special place in my heart, though I’ve since discovered many finer Belgian brews.
Pours a dark brown with amber highlights. Has the nice, brown Belgian head with beautiful, light carbonation. Tastes of bread, cocoa, roasted hops, and raisins. Finish with a toasted alcohol burn. This is nice. Wish it were distributed in the US, like it’s blonde sibling.

Aug 22, 2007 A beefier, browner version of its blonde cousin. Tim Webb calls this one a "tasty but safe" beer and I can’t put it any better!

Aug 6, 2007 I don’t know much about Belgians too say too much. I liked it...it wasn’t overpowering and had a nice hop/malt balance. I’d have this again, but I wouldn’t go out looking for it. It was ridiculously, expensive, though...so that effects my rating (even if it shouldn’t).

Jul 30, 2007 From bottle (chilled) Jazz Cellar, Edinburgh. Similar to Old Peculiar but thicker, heartier... tasting like it looks. More sweet than bitter. Carmel.
