Ruby red colour with floaties and an off white head. Malty, spicy and dark fruit sweet aroma. Malty flavor with a clove spicyness and some fruity sweetness. Highly carbonated and sweet finish.

Brown colored brew. Aroma is wine, fruits. Flavor is fruity, berries, cherries, wine, some sweetness some burned malts. Overall a bit too much fruits. Palate is not nice, sourness and alcoholic.

A dark clear brown ale with a thick moka head, and lots of fluffy sludge. A very nice sweet caramel with molasses, tobacco leafes and berries. Nice! In mouth, a nutty malt, fragrant, with loads of coriander, molasses, raisins. Rich and pungeant. Pleasantly surprised. Bieropholie import. BB April 2009.

330ml bottle (One Pint, Helsinki)
Very dark red, healthy off-white head. Strawberry jam aroma, some raspberry too. Quite sour on the tongue - and with healthy carbonation. Curious taste - quite sour and metallic, but not nasty, and some alcohol too. Decent burnt edge, but lacking the fullness I look for in a dubbel.

Bottle, bought @ brygshoppen.dk.
Pours deep, red-brown with a big, creamy, off-white head. Aroma is dried fruits, light chocolate, raisins and caramel. Fine, creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is softly yeasty, finely roasted, sweet chocolate, great balance, raisins, plums. Nice.
