Nugget (30), Seattle, Washington, USA
Oct 22, 2006 Pours a murky dark orange with l’il floaties. Smells a little tart and yeasty (a la Van den Vern). Kind of bready. Tastes slightly sweet but there’s not much else to it. A very unexciting beer.

Sep 28, 2006 Bottle. Big tanned head with nice laces. Unclear reddish-brown color. Malty nose. Also slight fruity with notes of yeast. Soft flavors of malts, caramel and dark fruits. Watery palate. Overall a bit thin, and it lacks the required gravity for a dubbel. I miss that special ‘t IJ quality signature on this one…

Sep 27, 2006 [Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm] Muddy dark amber, rich head. Evidently yeasty, orangey nose. Mdedium sweet with lively mouthfeel. Soap, yeast and orange dominates, the caramelly malt are barely perceptible underneath th efunky yeast character. A wild and interesting brew!

JoeMcPhee (4893), Jackson Heights, New York, USA
Sep 15, 2006 BB 08/2005. Another 2 buck special. Dark brown purplish tinted beer with a creamy tan head. Sweet fruity aroma, plums and dark cherries, sweet chewy toasted malts, yeast shows subdued clove and some sweet apple and grapey vineousness as well. Flavour is sweet and plummy but also lighted textured than many other dubbels. This makes it creamy and sweet, but also somewhat refreshing. Creamy texture, light mint herbal character. Some clove and light apple through the finish along with a lingering breadiness. Nice beer.
