posikyle (163), Alabama, USA Jun 18, 2008 A very good dubbel ruined with raisins. The aroma is raisins, the flavor is raisins with some malt...too many raisins...
drfabulous (742), Columbia, Missouri, USA Oct 10, 2008 Lots of Abbey here. Plus the fruit flavors. You get malt, sweet, not much head pours. Still not sure where I place this one on the Lost Abbey scale, but nice all around. RSRIZZO (1027), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Oct 8, 2008 Aroma is sweet with roasted scents and a hint of fruit. Color is a deep hazy amber with light carbonation and a very thin head. Taste is sweet and fruity. Starting with a medium to full body it goes down with a easy with a rich feel. Finish come in sweet with some mellow dried fruit flavors, a roasted caramel taste and a touch of yeast. In the after taste a faint bitterness rolls in. Good brew but nothing great. Headbanger (1001), Aurora, Illinois, USA Oct 8, 2008 750ml bottle(Patrons & Saints Club)-Pours a murky amber body with a small ring for a head. Aroma of fruit, sweetness, and yeast. Taste of the same with a nice balance of flavors. This medium to full bodied brew is quite tasty and another good brew from Lost Abbey. jeckenroth (59), Charlestown, Massachusetts, USA Oct 7, 2008
Pours a very dark brown, almost opaque except for the glimmer of light escaping from the corner of the glass. Topped with a tan head which is short lived.
Smells strongly of fruit, raisins with an undertone of yeast and bananas.
Not too heavy on the tongue with a lively kick of carbonation. This there is a strong sweetness in the middle after the initial hints of malt. Transitions to a banana and sugar end and a alcohol finish.
Strong entry for the style, but suffers in the end due to the overly defined sweet tones. DTM (399), Winters, California, USA Oct 7, 2008 Bottle from Monument in Concord, CA. Poured a dark brown with sediment. Smelled fruity in flavor and there was a ton of carbonation. Tasted of dark fruits and brown sugar. Well done brew by Lost Abbey.
