wheresthepath (216), Buckinghamshire, England Jun 21, 2008 [750ml bottle from Sainsbury’s, Reading, shared with Jim to celebrate him moving house] Deep but lively brown with a moderate lasting beige head. Far too fizzy - this would be better with a softer carbonation. Flavour is some burnt malts but increasingly tastes just of muscovado suger/ molasses. A sticky, bittersweet finish. Pleasant enough but a little one-dimensional.
deft (60), Sweden Aug 24, 2008 Clear very dark brown with lots of frothy tan head. Fruity aroma, spices and bread, some caramel. Sweet and bitter taste, caramel and some bread. High acidity MikL (3), Århus, Denmark does not count Aug 21, 2008 This beer has a very strong aroma. The appearance is a bit hazy and the taste is pretty decent. fata2683 (86), APO, New York, USA Aug 21, 2008 This is an ok brune. It is way to sweet for me and there is next to no hop flavor. The sweetness adds to it’s drinkability but I think they should focus more on bringing some other flavors out. St. Feuillien Brune is alot better. Borresteijn (514), Amstelveen, Netherlands Aug 19, 2008 Bottle. Cloudy brown beer, off-white head. Aroma of malts, milk chocolate, fruits. Flavour is soft and rather sweet, malty and yeasty, dark fruits, just a little sourness. Very nice and soft dubbel. Angeloregon (1867), Portland, Oregon, USA Aug 17, 2008 On tap at Belmont Station in PDX--Poured a dark brown body with a thick beige-tan head. Roasty nutty coffee chocolate nose. Malty, subtle, spicy, aromatic, delicious beer worth a try. Yum!
