Commercial Description:
A moderately strong Belgian Abbey-style beer. The traditional yeast strain imparts a complex assortment of spicy phenolic and fruity flavors Hints of clove, plum and raisin permeate this rich, malty and full-bodied beer. And its lofty, tan head sits gracefully atop the seductive, deep mahogany nectar.

750 ml bottle...not sure of the year...but it’s at least 4 years old or more at the point I opened it. Pours a nice deep brown with a bunch of ruby red notes and a medium bubbly/creamy off white head that left some nice lacing. Aroma of dark fruits, caramel, toffee, tobacco, some oxidation setting in, fruity notes, some molasses and Belgian yeast spicy notes. Flavor of mixed dark fruits, caramel, toffee, candi sugar, malty sweetness, clove, nice mix of Belgian yeast esters. This Dubbel held up nicely.

On tap at Stoudts Brewery. Dark brown pour with tan small foam head. Mix of spice and fruits with a nice malty feel. Good texture and body, fresh and smooth with a little bite - some sweetness. Fresh and tasty, loved this on tap with fresh Stoudts brewery made bread to dip!

Draft: Poured a Dark brown color with a frothy tan head. Aroma was that of caramel and malt. Flavor was a good fruity/spicy combo with nice balance and a smooth finish. I would definitely enjoy this one again.

Nice dark amber brown color with small cream head and little lacing. Aroma is very rich, malty and vinous with strong grape notes. Flavor is intensely vinous, sharp fruits, and malty with a light roasty finish. Warming alcohol tingle is nice, but not overwhelming. Excellent vintage beer...found it for $6.99 at Chuck’s in the cooler doors!

Sampled at the RBSG ’07 Grand Tasting room. Pours a clear light amber brew with just a fine film for head. Aroma of dried fruit, nutty caramel malt, and a touch of oak wood. Taste is full bodied, very light carbonation, with flavors of deep dark fruit, caramel malt and some citrus hop aftertate. Finish is slightly sweet and short.

RBSG 07. Light brown color and no visible sediment. A standard quality dubbel that is solid but doesn’t do anything to impress. It definitely does have a Belgian character, primarily from the yeast, but also the sweet malt flavor with some fruit. It does taste quite good, even if it doesn’t offer anything new.
