May 19, 2008 750mL bottle listed at 7% ABV. Pours with a rocky, off-white head covering a fizzy looking, hazy, dark amber-brown body. Aroma has raisins, figs, vanilla and some toasted malts. Taste is candied fruits, a rich body with light spiceyness, then yeastyness, finishing with a bit of smoke. A bit more carbonated than my liking, but so are many Dubbels in Belgium. The mouthfeel was water thin.

May 18, 2008 light brown with a huge tan head. Strong belgian yeast character. Lots of dried fruit, some spice. Finishes with decent carbonation. Nice to get a good bottle of this.

May 5, 2008 Updated: Oct 26, 200825oz bottle. Chestnut brown pour with little head, spritzy bubbles, almost coke-like. At first, this seemed like some kind of bock, it was really malty and smoky, lacked the spiciness I expected., Grew on me as the glass wore thin. Solid, just heavy on the malt and had a kind of smoked, toasted character. Fruits like figs, dates, and bananas shined throughout. I would have liked a creamier mouthfeel.

Apr 25, 2008 Updated: May 7, 2008Bottle. Pours a orange brown with very little head. Great aroma of dried fruits - figs, raisins and a bit of smoke that fades to banana as beer warms. Quite a bit of carbonation (which came as a surprise due to the lack of a head). Flavor has faint notes of dried fruits, along with a bit of molasses. It gets better as it warms and the flavors come out as the caronation subsides. Nice alcohol presence, warming. Lightly bitter finish.
