Brown, huge tan head. Aroma has nice banana, fig, prune combo. Yeast-bready character in the background. Flavor much the same, banana and fig. Toasty-bready, biscuity malt. Finishes with some light grape. Body is very thin at times, 3 is a stretch. Countless bottles of this, hoping for that mindblowing bottle, just don’t think it is going to happen.

Dec 16, 2009 Nice fruity, caramel sugars aromas with a hint of spice. Lovely bier in a glass. Good flavor profile, not as complex as I had hoped for. Estery, banana, bready, malty, & sweetish. Nice mouthfeel, to style. Overall very good, but not quite worth the money, unlike their tripel.

Dec 14, 2009 Westmalle Dubbel pours nicely with a light density beige head that soon dissipates. The aroma is a lightly malted with an almost cindery note to it. You can certainly taste the yeast amongst the contributors to the somewhat undesirable bitterness. I will add however that I see mine was bottled aug 18 2005. I can’t speak to how this ale might age. I do notice what I would refer to as a “house” flavor similar to their triple, so it may simply be that I do not prefer Westmalle brews.

Dec 2, 2009 Bottle. Pours a dark brown with relatively large tan head. Disappears over time leaving plenty of lacing. Aromas are not huge but show plenty of dark fruits, some toasted malt and some yeast. Flavours are slightly sweet with some caramel and chocolate. Slightly bitter finish. Nice beer

Dec 1, 2009 Refigerated bottle served in a trappist glass. Dark brown with nice beige head that lingers and nice lacing. The taste is complex, dark fruit with nice spice. Best double that I have had.
