| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 18, 2009 Growler, courtesy fogdog. Another long lost want list beer finally scored. The pour yields a clear, dark, chestnut brown body. A frothy, bubbly, cream colored head leaves spotty lacing behind. Aromas include caramel, bubblegum, and clove, with hints of spicy orange peel and gingerbread. Some dark fruit comes through as well, particularly dates and perhaps a little raisin. Flavors are similarly dark and fruity, with ample dark caramel and candy sugar. Fig and prune come through, while orange rind and light coriander brighten things up a bit. Medium-full, smooth, and lightly carbonated. Easy going for 9.5%. This is a very solid dubbel. HonkeyBra (1373), Lemont, Illinois, USA

Brown pour with tan head. Sweet, sugary, appley aroma. Flavor is nice, pruney, appley candi sugar.

Smells of sweet dark fruits, and dark malts, with bits of honey inthere as well. The flavor was pretty sweet, with big doses of candy sugar and the dark fruits combined. Went down pretty smooth, very drinkable for a dubbel. maybe a touch undercarbonated, but didnt tke away from it too much. Not bad at all. gunhaver (1043), Tampa, Florida, USA

Clear copper pour, thin white lacing and sheen of a head. Dark fruits are big in the nose, full of chocolate and bright, flowery hops. Flavor is ripe with candi sugar, dark fruits, nice dry roast and a slight hazy tropical finish. Very balanced and yummy, was definitely surprised by how drinkable this is.
