CapFlu (3254), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Jan 20, 2007 (750ml bottle) Bieropholie Private Imports. Pours a large, frothy, tan head with a deep brown body. Nose of wild yeast, wrinkled apples, wheat germ, vanilla and brown sugar. I really get a flavour of unripened green bananas - even the chalky pasty finish. Deep dark malts play in a field of long grasses, corn syrup line feeds a dividing path. Very nice.
Bhops (182), Dallas, Texas, USA Aug 12, 2008 pours golden amber with large head. Aroma of sweet malts and yeast, straw and caramel. Flavor of fruit and spice. I really enjoyed this beer. Very smooth and drinkable. Slayer85 (440), Firenze, Italy Aug 7, 2008 750 ml bottle. A cloudy medium amber beer with a huge, persistent, creamy beige head. The aroma is quite malty and yeasty, with notes of caramel, dark fruits and figs. The flavour has the same fruity notes and some more spiciness. Medium sweetness and a touch of acidity. Good mouthfeel, pleasant and smooth, medium body, lively carbonation, quite long finish with almost medium bitterness. A well balnced Dubbel, great appearence and mouthfeel, and becomes better as it warms.
