Jan 4, 2007 Mike oberdorf brought this home. I wish I remembered to rate it earlier. I remember it being ok but nothing spectacular. In fact when I compare it to other dubbels like the Bell’s or Westmalle, it pales. However it was a nice treat. Light flavor, sort of sweet and a little spicy, and not as robust as the aforementioned beers.

Dec 24, 2006 rating 500. rich cherry wood color. opaque and thick-looking. aroma takes me straight back to belgium. super candi sugar aroma. fruit + figgy flavor. tiny tiny bit thin. a bit overcarbonated as well. actually a surprising amount of alcohol character for 7% but it complements it well.

Nov 9, 2009 Dark chestnut amber with thick tan head. Aroma is raisins, cherries, ginger, and other spices. Taste is the same with a rich and mildly vinous fruit component, and slight warming alcohol into the finish. Extra-high carbonation makes this drink a bit like a milkshake. $10/750ml

Jun 29, 2008 750 bottle corked and caged opened with a light pop. color is a muddy brown with a thin fizzy tan head. aroma has yeast, raisin, fig, plumb, light anise, and spices. mouth feel has fizzy carbonation but is on the thin side. flavors of must, dark over ripe fruit, spice, and brown sugar sweetness. raisin adds both to the flavor and sweetness and is complemented by the yeast spice. finishes with dark fruit and some alcohol presence.
