Palm Dobbel

Brewed by Brouwerij Palm
Style: Belgian Ale
Steenhuffel, Belgium

Bottled(330ml). -Clear amber coloured, small white head that went away fast, soft lactic yoghurty nose. Light malty and fruity with notes of fruits, vanilla and metal in the finish. Pretty tasteless and watery. Typical Palm. 6.0%

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Washy aroma. Tastes very metallically and dry, only modest spicy, very unbalanced finish. Not a good beer!

[Beer Cleaning day at Rugmarken.] Bottle from Els. Amber look and flat head with buttery aroma. Similar flavor added with nuts, caramel and some fruits. Boring

Bottle at the Hopdevil, Zagreb
Yay, a new beer. Poured a darker amber-red body with a tiny white head that went away very quickly. Soft malty nose mingling with notes of tobacco and rice? Light, sweet, unimpressively woody stale malty taste, a bit yeasty, not in a good way, and lightly lemony. It’s drinkable, mind you and not as offensive as I might’ve made it sound, but it just isn’t a good Dubbel nor a Belgian Ale.

33cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, easy to drink, yet complex, balanced, clear, good head, nice Winter brew

Tastes pretty much the same as Palm Speciale, just a bit sweeter with a touch of spice added.

Bottle at home. Reddish with a beige head, fine lecings. Aroma moderate/heavy malty (caramel, notes of raspberries - yes), light hoppy. Flavor moderate sweet, light bitter. Watery.

Crystal clear dark copper or reddish brown. Small head, vanishes quickly, no lace. Aroma and palate very non-descript. Some sweet malts, a little bitter finish, but very little going on. Watery.
