| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 9, 2008 Poured dark amber, almost brown with a decent off-white head. Some lacing. The aroma was malts, winter type spices like clove, ginger and cinnamon and some tart citrus. The flavor was more of the same. Clove and cinnamon over malt and thin hops. Mouthfeel was on the dry side. A pretty average winter warmer. Hbuck72 (124), Chickasha, Oklahoma, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 5, 2008 nice color, not much head, smells of malts and spices. not much lacing on the glass, smooth on the palate
Very interesting flavor, but I had a hard time picking out distinct flavors other than malt, and maybe cinnamon notes.
Overall, I thought that this was a good winter ale pj1855 (158), Eagan, Minnesota, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 29, 2008 Pours a clear amber color with virtually no head. Aroma of banana/bubble gum and brown sugar. Similar taste with a little bit of cinnamon and hops. Not a bad beer but it’s a little too sweet. Trev (888), Lakeville, Minnesota, USA

I didn’t particularly care for this one. CanIHave4Beers (917), Des Moines, Iowa, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 1, 2008 Updated: Jul 15, 2008I quite like this beer. It has a malty roasted and sweet aroma with floral hints. The beer is clear and a deep dark brown without much head to speak of. The flavor is nice, almost like a weizenbock, with roasty malt flavors and bananna & clove hints. The palate is smooth and the beer is very easy drinking for all the flavor. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Jun 17, 2008 Sampled from bottle: This beer pours a clear dark reddish colour with a very small thin amber head. The beer carries a very pleasent aroma. Dates, honey, carmel and apricots. Has flavors of grapes, carmel, toffee and honey. Medium bodied, doesn’t represent a dubbel as much as it could. But still tastey. darn1207 (630), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 14, 2008 12oz bottle. garnet pour with small short beige head. aroma of malt and banana. relatively muted taste of bubble gum, smoke, spice and slight bitterness. not necessarily pleasant taste.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 13/20 | Feb 20, 2008 Clean dark red pour with a medium head. A bit stinky first smell but that goes away after drinking it. Very sweet with a lot of character, like molasses and caramel, ginger and clove with just a bit of wine fruit taste. Good beer but rich. one is enough.
