| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 15, 2006 01-05 bottle. Cloudy light brown pour with off-white short-lived head. The aroma is the best thing about the beer. Strong, yeasty and filled with ripe fruits including plum, apple and banana peel. Some notes of earthiness as well. The flavor is mostly bitter and the bitterness masks most of the sweet fruitiness anticipated from the aroma, unfortunately. A peppery alcohol comes through in the finish. The palate is thick, syrupy and sticky. Moderate carbonation. The alcohol provides a nice warming. SpudClampDawg (1027), Jasper, Indiana, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 13, 2006 January 2005 bottle. Nut brown color with a creamy head that instantly vanishes. Earthy aroma is full of malty nut, caramel, raisin and toffee. Balances well with the yeast. The body is softly carbonated and produces a silky and creamy mouthfeel. More sweet malt fills the mouth, balanced with a healthy hop bitterness in the finish. This is really missing any yeast influence in the body. Drinks more like a creamy nut brown than an abbey dubbel, but good anyways. Sammy (4012), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 23, 2006 On Tap at the Toronado in San Francisco. I got the dregs of the keg, it blew while pouring my glass. Therefore, I got a little bit more yeast than is probably normal, and it probably affected the color, as this seemed very dark. Very strong yeast flavor. Nice estery notes. Lower carbination and a little less sweet than a typical dubbel. As you would expect, no hop flavor. A Delicious dubbel. beastiefan2k (1603), Lawrence (formely NYC), Kansas, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 21, 2006 Bottle, poured into Chimay goblet. Beautiful dark brown color, cant see through the beer. The aroma is strong, bread-like aroma, but sweet at the same time. The body is actually thinner than expected. The taste is lost because of this. Dedollewaitor (3736), Odense, Denmark
