Aug 6, 2009 On tap in brewery. Pours a deep copper with amber hues and a two finger head. Head quickly dissipates into a thin ring that leaves good lacing throughout. Aroma has a nice malty sweetness with hints of toast, dark fruit, and some spicy. Taste is similar to aroma, with a spicier character. Light notes of alcohol. Medium body that is smooth and silky. A well done beer for this style.

Jul 28, 2009 A dark brown beer with no head. Aroma was fruit, yeasty, & a lot of malt. Taste was smooth but not complex in any way & had a slight leather taste. I have not had any of there other Belgian inspired beers, but being called New Belgium this least reminds of other Belgian inspired beers being brewed outside Belgium.

Jul 18, 2009 Pours reddish brown with a big, white pillowy, uneaven head. Nose is fruity. Taste is spicy, with notes of cinnamon, caramel and bubblegum. Extremely flavorful and complex. The sweetness dances toward cloying without quite crossing the line. Interesting and memorable.

Jul 14, 2009 2009 Bottle. Overall, I found this dubbel to be a bit too acidic overall. Tastes of cinnamon, spices, and caramel. Aroma of spices and lightly of alcohol. The flavor is a bit cloying and burns the throat uncomfortably with its acidity. Other Belgian ales have hints of this, but is not as noticeable. Not a bad brew, but probably not one I will purchase again.

Jul 10, 2009 Full of raisin and plum and sugar on the nose. Dark Candy carmel red color that is see though and crystal clear with a little white head. Mouthfeel is nice but had some sting to it from the abv, although it does not show up on the flavor. It does finish very silky smooth. Flavor is gorgeous. Well balanced and not overly sweet. Lots of beet sugar, but it is well done. some spice to finish

Jul 7, 2009 I must’ve got an old sixpack. I thought it was just okay. Pours brown, sort of clear, with some hint of fruity aroma, but not a lot of aroma. What do I need to do to clear my nasal passages? Tasted slightly carmelly, decent enough, but not overly fantastic, in my opinion.
