Jun 20, 2008 Reddish brown in color with pretty much no head. Smell is sweet, sugary, molasses, raisans, and fruits. Taste is much the same as the smell. Good flavors in there.

Jun 18, 2008 Deep mahogany-red-brown, slight haze and tan head. Complex gamy aroma includes roots and Chinese herbs like a healing tea. Also mincemeat tarts, fig jam, dates in the flavors. Walnuts and baklava without sugar. Finishes clean and delightful. Really nice, sophisticated stuff.

Jun 18, 2008 A very good dubbel ruined with raisins. The aroma is raisins, the flavor is raisins with some malt...too many raisins...

Jun 14, 2008 Bottle: pours a dark reddish color with a thin and quick disappearing head, aroma of dark fruits and spices, taste is very similar - dark fruits and spices but a bit more subdued than I was expecting, fairly thin mouthfeel as well. Solid dubbel.

Jun 13, 2008 On tap @ Backstreet Brewing, Vista. Nice nose of vinous raisins, caramel malt, good and spicy. Interesting. Dark amber in color with a thin head that fades. Interesting flavor that reminds me of bubblegum esters with a strong malty flavor and fairly spicy finish. Complex and interesting, but drinkable. Nice palate, quick dry finish.

Jun 12, 2008 From a 750 ml bottle purchased at By The Bottle in Vancouver, WA--Poured a dark brown-amber body with a big off-white head. Esters of yeastiness, fruitiness, and medicine. Caramel, dark fruits (raisins and figs), and a boozy candied bite. Very easy to drink and quite delicious! Not as yeasty as the nose indicated initially. Very subtle flavor complexities that ruminated for sometime. Yum!

Jun 7, 2008 750ML Bottle purchased at City Beer in San Francisco. Served at 59 degrees F. The pour: spritzy, murky brown color. Head: appropirate for the style, but collapses rather quickly. The bouquet: indeed yeasty, with strong notes of figs and raisins. The palate: estery, fruity, with nice hoppiness in the finish. Enjoyed it with Romeo & Juliet- (Brazilian Goiabada & Catupiry Cheese)
