Mar 25, 2007 Bottled at Pressklubben, Stockholm. Clear dark ruby, rich head. Vinous raisiny nose. Sweet with lots of dextrose. Fairly light bodied with clean mouthfeel. Saccharine comes through in the finish. What the lovely aroma promise the flavour fails to deliver.

Nov 29, 2006 Bottled(330ml). –Shared with Doggythedog at the Hopdevil in Zagreb
Nice reddish/brown coloured, pale brown head, subdued yeasty nose. Caramel and malty aroma with slight toffee and fruity notes, and unpleasant metallic taste.

Nov 24, 2006 Bottle conditioned, 330ml, aged 4.5yrs. Dark porty brown with a tan head. Though matured for a few years the beer is still quite sweet with fructose notes and a plumy fruitiness with hints of pear. Smooth but still not fully developed and lacks some depth, being thin late on the palate. No more than reasonable.

Nov 23, 2006 Bottle at the Hopdevil in Zagreb
This looked damn lovely, a big, thick tan head that went away slowly on top of a beautiful dark red body. The nose was yeasty, dusty quite a bity, unripe raspberries.. ok... good even. After that, the taste was a huge disappointment. A faint, weak (pleasant though) caramelly taste, slightly vinous. Tiny fruity and metally hints, and a touch of chewy hopiness in the aftertaste.... Is it really necessary for these non trappist dubbels to be tasteless ? Could be a good session beer, but far from the best in its category.

Nov 15, 2006 Dark amber clear beer. Off-white head, mostly lasting. Molasse and perhaps nottes of chocolate in the aroma. Flavor is a bit sharp, perhaps pepper.

Oct 14, 2006 Bottled. Pitch dark brown colour, big brown head, lacing. Aroma is raisin, metal slight malts and plum. Flavour is very metallic with nuts, chocolate, caramel and malts in it. The metallicness is so strong it ruins the beer. Not even passed it’s prime, as the stated BBE is 08/08... Long metallic aftertaste.
