Nov 26, 2007 Updated: Sep 8, 2008on tap @ papago. clear? dark amber with a rich off white head. aroma is candi...bubblegum, yeast and some sweet dark malts. medium bodied and on the creamy side from the carbonation. flavor is caramel burnt raisins, malt, wood, clove, cinnamon, yeast and alcohol (which gets pungent as it warms). spicy dry finish with lingering notes of bananas...
7/3/7/3/15/3.5
second time around on tap... very distinct nail polish aroma is quite offensive. dry throughout with an almost ’dead’ flavor profile and a very tart finish. soft creamy carbonation leaves a pleasant mouth feel. 5/3/6/3/12/2.9

Nov 20, 2007 Dark brownish/amber color, somewhat translucent...pretty large frothy head that faded Really great fruity/belgian yeasty/candy/bubble gum aroma with a touch of some caramel and light spiciness. I definitely recognize the yeast (from other beers) even in the aroma. The flavors are similarly fruity, loads of dried dark fruit (dates, cherries, raisins), caramel, candy sugar, a touch of bitterness and a very slight alcohol warmth. Nice rich silky sugary mouthfeel which I like, but it was somewhat thin. But extremely easy to drink. And the fact that it was $5.99 for a 6 pack makes it awesome. Not the greatest dubbel ever but damn good for the price and for the fact that it comes IN A SIX PACK... I’ll definitely buy more of these.

Nov 9, 2007 A brown/copper colored ale. Has a big head that takes a while to go away. The aroma is very sweet like Belgian sugar. The conistency is thick like syrup. The flavor is outstanding. Crisp, sweet, and refreshing with hints of citrus.

Oct 28, 2007 Pours a deep brown with nice white head. Has a pronounced banana aroma and flavor but also bittersweet chocolate, rum and raisins. Has a slight astringent note, maybe due to a roasted malt addition?
