| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 23, 2009 Draft. This was called de dobel, but it’s not a dubbel - it’s a Belgian Pale. I think sometimes he just uses the name for a random Belgian. Amber beer with an off-white head. Yeast and spice aroma. Yeasty, phenolic flavor with spice, malt, and a slight fruitiness. Medium bodied. yeast and spice lingers with light malt and some light PNW hops. SledgeJr (2960), Omaha, Nebraska, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 5, 2006 On tap at the brewpub. The current name du jour for this brew is now "Mac Dobel." Very reddish dark amber with a thin off-white head. Limited roasted aroma. Flavor is very complex. Thick and rich This was the highest gravity beer sold when I was there (7.7% ABV). Has an element of burnt roastedness, maybe even stale cigarettes, but it works in this! Fruity raisins, berries and prunes are in the mix. Has a thick mouth coating malt wash. willblake (2176), Belcamp, Maryland, USA

Coppery-red with little head. Raisins, plum, boozy, some pepper. Nice, laid back style. Definitely a dubbel. Went great with cheese plate. Lubiere (4518), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Dec 12, 2004 Tap. Amber ale with faint malt aroma. Rather pale lager for a dubbel. No spices in aroma. Sweetned water with not much else. Boring and totally besides the point. (June 2004).
