Oct 29, 2007 Rated blind from "Better Know a Style: Abbey Dubbel" tasting. Black/brown color with small off-white head. Meaty aroma with some dark aroma, small fruit. Dark fruity, very candy sweet, too much sugar. Thin, little carb. Too sweet and unappealing.

Very dark brown color, cherries, oranges, dark chocolate and sharp alcoholic nose. Liquorice, milk chocolate, brandy, oranges in the mouth. Finish is a bit rough and alcohol comes through too much. Needs more time in the cellar.
