The_Beer_God (2855), Newport News, Virginia, USA Oct 21, 2004 Bottled. Purchased from Bier Tempel. Reddened caramel color with a smnall frothy tan head. Nose is very malty with a sweet caramel aroma, along with dark fruits, spices and mild yeast. Some minimal hoppiness (flowers) as well. Taste is much the same as the aroma - caramel, sweet malts, spices and dark fruits. The poster boy for abbey dubbels! Body has effervescence crafted with tingly spice sensations throughout it’s time in the mouth while intermingling with periods of creaminess. Finsihes bittersweet with stronger flowery notes and remnants of yeast and spice.
