Mar 13, 2008 Bottled, BB 5/9/08. Poured crystal clear garnety-amber with at least a couple inches worth of sticky beige head. The aroma was dry with peppery spices and cloves over sweet plums and other dark fruits.. nice components, but there was an overriding airy detergent character to it. The flavor was just what I was looking for.. initial white peppery impression with a dark fruit and dry caramel backing.. fruity middle with a big, Belgian-y yeast footprint.. dry finish with the aforementioned fruit, faint chocolate, and caramel.. very well-balanced and enjoyable. Medium-bodied and dry on the palate with peppery yeast and cloves very well interlaced. Very good brew!

Mar 12, 2008 Updated: Mar 13, 2008Had on tap at City Beer in SF. Poured a very nice dark amber brown color. Sweet malty smell. Taste was sweet malts, a bit of citrus, and bananna...A VERY mild, and wayyyy too drinkable dubbel...I was giddy after one glass that I most likely drank way too fast!

Feb 28, 2008 bottle. pours a deep red amber with a big off white head, which fades slowly and leaves behind huge sheets of lacing. nutty spicy malt scents, with anice, coriander, grape, raisin, black cherry, and some bready malt. the bread malt dominates the taste, with some spices, notes of pears, grapes, and raisins. light bittersweet finish, medium body, lots of carbonation, creamy mouthfeel. the spice and malt and esters in this blend together perfectly, and you get a really solid belgian brew as a result.

Feb 19, 2008 Pours a darker a amber color with a egg shell white head that remains throughout the tasting. The beer smells sweet with caramel notes and some bready and banana esters. The taste is great with a stronger malt presence that quickly makes way for the sweet yeast and hops and finishes with cloves and bananas. The taste stays with you after you finish drinking. Other flavors began to emerge as well, such as cinnamon, apples and slight plums.
