Commercial Description:
This brown ale has a marked ruby brown colour with a generous and lasting head. It has a distinctive aroma reflecting the wide range of ingredients used in its production. The fruitiness resulting from its fermentation blends harmoniously with a dominant liquorice and caramel flavour. The body is decidedly malty. The bitterness is the result of a complex alchemy between the fine hops and special malts used. These give St Feuillien Brune a typical dark chocolate appearance.

Dark brown body with medium head. Nose of malt, raisins and fruits. Quite sweet flavoured, with malts, caramel, spices and fruits coming through. Perhaps too sweet.

Bottled 33cl. Appearance: It pours a murky nut brown beer with an average sized beige head. Some lacework. Aroma: A lot of plums, pumpernickel, brown sugar, malt, banana, raisins, marshmallows and candy showing up which are accompanied by some slight fennel and carrot notes. Surprinsingly yeasty. Sweet. Flavor and palate: Malty with hints of banana, carrot, fennel, raisins and coriander. Very sweet. Low bitterness. Medium to full bodied. Some cork sneaking in. Alcohol showing up with the swallow. Residual sugars in the finish which is reminiscent of banana and candy. Overall impression: Overly sweet. I didn’t enjoy this Dubbel much.

11.2 oz bottle. Pours creamy chocolate brown in color with a thin light tan head. Smells very maly and carmely with some hints of fermented dark fruit. Tastes of fermented dark cherries and plums, anise, toasted nuts. A little to much for me, almost has a regurgitated fruit and beer flavor. Not my style.

Had both the Jean de Nivelles Brune and the St Feuillien Brune, said to be the same beer. Pours deep brown color with a nice light tan foam. Aromas of rosted malts. Flavors of toasted malts with little sweetness, caramel and spice finish. Well balanced, excelent beer.

Medium brown color, very cloudy. Aroma is slightly spicy. A bit sweet and quite malty - you can tell this is a strong beer.
