muzzlehatch (4424), Burlington, Vermont, USA Feb 6, 2002 Updated: May 16, 2003 Strong, strong flavor; alcohol, a nice yeastiness and vinous quality; but way too much carbonation. Beautiful light amber color, and typically complex Belgian nose; but guys, cut down on the fizz! 2/4 rerate. Liked this a bit more; seemed smoother, less fizzy, and thicker-bodied. If you hit this pub, definitely go with the Belgians and the Porter.
jjpm74 (3087), Stratford, CT 06614, Connecticut, USA Sep 5, 2006 On tap at Three Needs. Pours reddiesh brown with a thin but persistent tan head. Smells fruitty with lots of spices. Tastes of coffee, fruits, spices and sugar. CaptainCougar (4663), Rockville, Maryland, USA Mar 16, 2004 Pours a dark and rich brown color with a thick, light tan and well-lacing head. Sweet caramely Belgian malt aroma. Body is thick, sweet, bready and complex, with a somewhat tart finish. A very nice dubbel, but could use a little more balance and yeastiness.
