Amber with an offwhite head. Aroma from tar, chocolate, licorice and some plum. Spicy flavor with tar and chocolate. Quite salyt, especially in the finish. More like a stout than abbey dubbel, but still quite good.

Bottle from bu11zeye. Pours with a light brown head and a murky dark brown body. Aroma of clove, a bit of leather, flowery with dark fruits. Taste is leathery and chocolatey with spices. A bit on the fizzy side.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours a brown color with orange highlights. Small tope head. Nose: cherries, caramel, lit bit of roasted malt and spice. Taste is metal, toffee, and has some back end acid. I liked the nose better.

Poors deep amber, with a lively head. Aroma is rich and smooth. Tastes of soft chocolatey malts, well balanced, thankfully not too sweet. The alcohol is quite prevalent.
