Feb 14, 2009 Great dubbel! Aroma of carmelized brown sugar and dark ripe fruit. Taste to match, but with a slight hint of licorice and root beer. Dark ruby color, with the perfect tight egg shell colored head, about 1 inch, nicely laced. Not overly sweet.

Feb 10, 2009 Westmalle Dubbel is a cloudy, dim, dark brown ale with a dense, blotchy, beige head that has excellent retention and lacing. It has a fruity aroma, with notes of apple, raisin, banana and clove. It is medium-light bodied; bubbly, with a dry, slightly gritty finish, almost like it was dry hopped. It is a simple flavor that’s pretty well bittered. It’s a bit sour and a touch sweet, with notes of leather, pepper, hay, juniper and brett. OK, maybe it’s not all that simple, but the flavors are very fused. This is a pretty solid Dubbel.

Feb 10, 2009 Bottle into chalice.
Pours a a purplish-brown color, murky, with a thin, fluffy tan head that fades into a thin, creamy cap that lasts the entire beer.
Nose is light dark fruits and brown sugar, with some spicy yeast lending a light, doughy character to the smell. Just a hint of spicy alcohol lends some interesting depth.
Taste is intense - up front, you get a big, yeasty, doughy malt note full of dark fruit and some brown sugar, followed by a sweet, rich lingering dark fruit note that fades into a dry, slightly yeasty finish.
Mouthfeel is crisp, lightly scrubbing, with a fluffy mouthfeel and medium body.
