A hazy deep red-brown beer with a nice brown head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of berries, but also lighter notes of yeast and wood. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of yeast, but also notes of wood, prunes, and berries, as well as hints of the alcohol. It is very sparkling on the tongue due to the carbonation, and it ends of with a slight alcohol burn.

(Bottle 75 cl) Beautiful mahogany with a tint of red. Creamy, off-white head leaving some laces. Sophisticated, vinous aroma with distinct alcohol. The body is solid and full with plenty of roasted malt. Sweet, fruity notes - of dried fruit like raisins in particular. Also very warming alcohol in the finish. 291205

Burgundy. Malty, soft, complex, vinuous, late bitterness. Feels really Belgian.

75 cL bottle. Pours hazy amber/deep orange to brown with a huge light tan head. Light spiced, mild fruity and yeasty aroma. Flavour is sweet fruity with a light caramel and mild yeasty note following. Nicely spiced to provide some dryness and light acidic touch to the otherwise rather sweet dubbel brew. Light estery finish. Goes fantastic with barbequed chicken and turkish potatoes.

Bottled (thanks Degarth). Brownish amber colour with mediumsized beige head. Aroma is alcohol, spices and herbs. Flavour is spices and licorice. Slight notes of some caramel and candyish sweetness. I think this could do with some "heavier meaty foods" better than it’s without.

Bottle, 8.5%. Yeasty, slightly funky aroma. The flavour starts off very malty with some malt syrup, melassis. Ends on a citric note that lifts the beer a bit. Has a little cardboard to it, but it does not matter much.
