| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 9, 2008 06/04 0.33 l bottle at Hopdevil, Zagreb. Poured clear darker red body with quite small brownish head. Relatively sweet aroma, yeasty with mostly dark fruits and some caramel or chocolate. Fine, but very faint. Flavor is on the other hand more sourish than sweet, with fermented grapes dominating. Pretty thin bodied brew. Some chocolate in finish round the whole thing quite well, although finish itself is very weak and short. Or I really can’t appreciate dubbels, except some great examples, or this is pretty boring.
