Petrus Dubbel Bruin

Brewed by Bavik-De Brabandere
Style: Belgian Ale
Harelbeke, Belgium

330ml bottle. from the bottle, it pours similar to a red ale, but with a deeper, more intense core. bountiful head, with notable lacing. aromas: dates, plum, and other dark, rich fruits like black succulent cherries and ripe raisins. a touch of oak and faint anise is also noticed. the flavor yields dark fruit juices, pleasant and rich allspice, and faint caramel. the finish continues with the plum sensation onto the back of the palate. on top of all that, the price is right.

Dark brown colour, creamy beige head. Flavors: (coffee)cream, caramel, a bit fruits. Full body with a modest bitter aftertaste. Pleasant.

It poured a medium brown with a thin, tan head; had a slight carbonated note to it. Aroma was a mix cola and fruits. Flavor was initially sweet with dried fruits but was balanced out with a acidic quality to it. Carbonation was present, but minimal.

Nez malté de caramel légèrement rôti et terreux, de levures fruitées (cerises, léger de dates, notes de raisins), léger de sucre brun ainsi que des notes de noix, de pain et de chocolat. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-bas et une texture crémeuse. Goût de levures fruitées sucrées aux faibles notes sûres (cerises et raisins, léger de figues, notes de pommes et de prunes) avec de petites notes boisées lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût malté de caramel assez sucré, légèrement rôti (notes brûlées) et aux notes terreuses, léger de toffee et de sucre brun (aussi des traces de sirop d’érable) ainsi que des notes de chocolat, de sucre bonbon et de pain puis en finale l’on retrouve des notes amères de houblon herbeux et terreux avec un léger goût de noix rôties asséchantes et d’alcool très doux (rhum). Post-goût moyen-long aux notes sèches, légèrement amer de rôti, de houblon herbeux avec des notes de chocolat et de noix ainsi qu’une légère aigreur fruitée (moût de cerises et de raisins, pelures de prunes et de pommes).

Deep brown amber with a off white head. Sweet malty caramel/nutty aroma - sweetness. Medium filling with a soft texture.Some dark fruits with a sour edge lingers in the end. Brown sugar. Pleasant and allround OK!

Bottle; nose of sweet caramel and fruit; rusty red with a medium beige head; flavor of yeastiness, sweet caramel, apples, and raisins with a little bitterness in the finish. Enjoyable brew!

Bottle. Average beige light creamy like head that mostly lasted. Clear sparkling body with a mahogany color. Aroma was caramel, fruit. But also hint of berries, wood, toasted and brown sugar notes. Medium bodied with an average carbonation. Light to moderated sweet notes with a burned bitter flavor. Lingering sweet wood finish. Almost like a Flemish Sour without the real sour notes?
