Feb 10, 2008 apple juice in bulk. Believed to be 2006 bottle, Atlanta Ale meeting. I will give this another shot as this may be tainted.

Jan 3, 2008 Courtesy of Pailhead. July ’06. Transparent mahogany brown, minimal white head. Aroma is full of yeasty sourness, hints of leather and cardboard. Flavor much the same. Probably has seen its better days. Decent for a sour mash or something but not a dubbel at all.

Jan 22, 2007 Thanks to hopdog for popping open this bottle of one of my favorite styles from one of my favorite breweries...
Appears a dark mahogany with a red hue and an off white head that slowly fades into a small cap. Mild spots of lacing are left around the glass.
Smell is of roasted nuts, cocoa, light tartness, caramel, vanilla, chalk dust, and dirty ash trays with sugar dumped in them.
Taste is of the mentioned aromas with some caramel, grapes and a bit of cream.
Mouthfeel is of dry chalkiness with tartness and mild astringency.
Seemed a bit off. As a fan of the both Southampton, and Dubbels, I expected to be blown away.
