Jun 18, 2008 Bottle @ ORL throwdown, courtesy of redlight. This pours dark brown with a cream head about a finger tall. Yum, dark fruit wafts above rich caramel malts and yeasty phenols. Sweet to taste, with dark fruits and yeast notes tempered by a mild bitterness. The mouthfeel is amazing, this beer dances on my tongue, very nice carbonation.

Jun 15, 2008 Updated: Feb 18, 2009Bottle shared by Crosling. Poured a cola-brown color with tan highlights and a thin beige head. Aroma of dark fruit (plum), raisin, light caramel and bubble gum, and a moderate yeastiness. Smooth, lightly funky entry with some light caramel lead into fruity undertones of plum, raisin, and fig. Light yeastiness on the finish. Smooth, moderately slick mouthfeel. Pretty nice.

Jun 15, 2008 Pours an opaque dark brown with a huge foamy offwhite head that gives you that added texture. Subtle roasted coffe flavors in the background with some wood and nuttiness as well. Finish has a touch of sweetness. Aroma is predominately yeast. Focusing back on the flavors again, getting some cocoa as well accompanied by a chalky kind of texture. Really nice as far as this style goes. Big ups to maltOmeal for forwarding this one.

Jun 15, 2008 Pours a dark dark brown with large sticky light tan head. Complex and full bodied, strong flavors of chocolate, plum, fig, caramel, raisin, bready malt, toffee, spice (clove), vanilla, and bits of floral hops. Smooth, mouth coating, and full bodied. This is a wonderful dubbel.

Jun 13, 2008 22oz. Dark brown pour, pale golden around the edges. Really well balanced, and round, malty aroma. Dark fruit, cocoa, alcohol. There’s a little buttery note in there too, toffee. Flavor is similar, almost mirroring the aroma - pretty impressive. Chalky cocoa finish, a little coffee in the end. Bubbly and silky in the mouth. Bitter almonds in the finish. Excellent, the best dubbel I’ve had hands down.

Jun 11, 2008 Updated: Jul 30, 2008bomber. This pours a dark brown with a large tan head. Had great lacing. Nose is of vinous fruit and brown sugar. Taste is of vinous fruit - raisins - and brown sugar. Mouthfeel is medium and coats the tongue wonderfully. It is sweet, yet the alcohol is barely noticeable. Very nice.

Jun 4, 2008 Bottle: Dark brown with a large tan head, thick lacing. Aroma is fruity and light (for the color) with some caramel and roastiness. Bits of vinous. Flavor is rich and smooth with dark fruits, little bits of cloves, some roast, and hints of dates. A little warming sensation comes through as well. Nice and smooth, easy to sip on this 22oz for three hours...
