May 16, 2005 [Vintage 2001 - sampled September 2004] An unclear amber beer with no head. The aroma is very sweet with notes of overripe fruits and prunes. The flavor is sweet with notes of prunes and raisins as well as slight hints of the alcohol, leading to a dry woody finish.

Jul 8, 2003 Dark amber. Chewy toffee aroma, light florals. Overload of caramel and toffee. Too sweet, and has lost some of the floral character that I admire in the regular abbey.

May 26, 2003 Minimal beige head atop deep brown body with floaties. Aroma is moderately sweet malty and fruity -- raisin, peach and orange. Taste is moderately sweet, caramel, raisin and some spice (coriander, ?). The finish had a slight alcohol burn. Full-bodied and well-balanced. Tremendous interpretation of a Dubbel.

Jun 28, 2004 Reddish brown mostly clear body. Light brown head displaying good belgian lacing. Very malty aroma with nutty, toffee aspects together with dark fruits (dates) and maybe some licorice. Spicy on the tongue, yeasty and bready while just being very malty and candi sugar sweet. Nice velvety mouthfeel, mostly thick with gentle carbonation. Mild alcohol warmt in the finish. This does right just about everything I expect from a dubbel which really seems to be a tough style to make a great example of.

Jan 20, 2003 Pours a medium brown with a small cream colored head. The aroma is malty with a good coriander profile. This has a thick syrupy body that finishes light and citrusy. The flavor is reserved, but the alcohol is quite apparent. Other than the alcoholic burn, this is a very authenic tasting Grand Cru.
