Dec 26, 2004 spritzy candi sugar and dark fruit aroma, reddish brown with a dark khaki head, thin and cherry sour with a nice raisiny finish, the amount of sourness makes me think this bottle had gone bad, when I bought it it didn’t seem to have been taken care of too well, I’ll have to hunt this down again and compare ratings

Dec 9, 2004 12.09.04 750ml bottle. Prune juice brown pour with moderate tan head of fine bubbles. Aromas are fruitcake, plum, vanilla and chocolate, deep and winey. Flavors follow suit with uncomplex tawny port notes and plenty of raisin, chocolate, light nuttiness. Good stuff with nice balance, not too sweet.

Nov 2, 2004 Pours a dark ruby brown with a good head that lasts awhile. A little bit of melon in the nose, but not a whole lot else other than a slight bit of almost chocolate malt. The flavor is nicely complex, although there’s an unusual tartness involved that I’m not sure I like or not. It does improve as it warms, but the tartness doesn’t go anywhere.

Nov 1, 2004 This is my first abbey dubbel so i didnt know what to expect. Could smell this immediately after opening. Nose is nutty and light malts. Rich brown with red tint and a thin film of head. Has a sour taste of a unripe plum and golden apples along with pear and caramel syrup. Flavor also is bitter with yeast and a moderate malt level. Vintage date of 11-12-01. Thanx to Eyedrinkale for the trade.
