Palm Dobbel

Brewed by Brouwerij Palm
Style: Belgian Ale
Steenhuffel, Belgium

[Draft] An amber beer with next to no head and no aroma. The flavor is funny, fresh, with notes of raspberries. It is a little watery in the middle and ends on a slight bitterness with some fruit notes. Nothing special - too thin. I was disappointed compared to Palm Speciale.

(Bottle 75 cl) 6% ABV in my version. First brewed to celebrate the 250 year jubilee of the Palm brewery. Reddish amber with a decent, white head. Not much stronger than the original Palm, actually less malty but more refined and spicy. A decent albeit rather pricey ale - and not really that much better than the original - if better at all? 280398
