A nice Belgian dubbel. Good candi sugar odors and flavors. Strong alcohol presence. Finishes with the typical dubbel super sweetness and slight sourness.

Poured a very deep red brown color with a small beige head. The aroma was mildly sweet with some dark fruit and tobacco. Some doughy notes. The flavor is a little eastery and earthy with chocolate on the tail. Light hoppy finish. Semi-dry with a medium body and some warmth in the throat.

Poured a brownish red color with a medium sized, off white head that quickly diminished and left no lacing on the glass. Aroma of dark fruits (cherries, berries), candy sugar, yeast, and caramel. Tart cherry taste, some yeast, sweet malts, and light alcohol comes through as pepper. Round mouthfeel.

Draught @ the brewery: Malty aroma was a bit faint. Smelled of alcohol, wood, a little Belgian spices, medicine, and yeast. Poured a ruby-brown color with a medium-sized, creamy, off-white head that lasted. Good lacing. Flavor was a little sweet. Malty, with notes of alcohol, coriander, nutmeg, toasting, earth, clove, and a hint of banana. Medium body. Dry, sticky texture. Dry finish. Overall, a solid Abbey Dubbel. Just not one of my favorite styles.

On tap at the Blind Tiger in NYC. The pour was slightly murky-ish red-brown to orange, decent initial head, lacing nice too. Aroma was spices, dough, some light floral notes. The flavor followed, nice yeasty bready touch, finishing with a touch of bitterness, spices present with some zesty zing, other fruits, dark and light perhaps. Caramel and chocolate also underneath it all. The mouthfeel was moderate, pretty nice for the style, could have used some nutty notes along with the rest of the beer, pretty good stuff.
