Rustyham (545), miami, Florida, USA Sep 29, 2009 fantastic sweet malty fruit flavor. thick, mouth coating body with no taste of alcohol. this is the way dubbels are supposed to taste. Bottle at 2nd Annual Treasure Coast Beerfest in Ft. Pierce, Fla. kopher (295), New York, USA Sep 26, 2009 gusher. cloudy brown, thick foamy yellow-brownish head.
very malty aroma, a bit of sourness, with candied fruit -- peach, apricot, apple -- and alcohol.
flavor is more balanced, fruit salad and candy throughout, with a very dry yeasty finish. still a bit too much sweet malt though.
nice medium body, dry texture.
gunnar (486), Sandnes, Norway Sep 21, 2009 Bottle. Pours a murky deep amber with a huge creamy tan head. Sweet fruity malt aroma. Rich fruity taste, roasted malt, chocolate, toffee and caramel sweetness, balanced well by some dry hops at the end. spkldhenlvr24 (446), Newburgh/Buffalo, New York, USA Sep 18, 2009 11.2oz bottle. Pours a muddy brown body, no carbonation seen. Small frothy beige head quickly retreating to a lasting ring. Aroma was initially chocolate warming up to some big malty, fruity scents. Light carbonation. Really good fruity flavors with a roasted malty balance. Medium bodied. Long lasting aftertaste. Simply put just a great tasting beer. sirpsycho (342), Murrysville, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 17, 2009 Bottle. Pours a murky reddish-brown, small tan head, some lacing.
