Even though the smell and taste get only a 6 it’s a decent abbey dubbel. Nice dark amber colored, medium body and carbo.

Bottle. A very nice aroma, spicy and fruity, not quite as tasty, though. But over all quite good.

Bottle 33cl, a clear amber dark beer with huge head and good lacing. Nose is very fruity on cassis and dry grapes. Aroma is spicy, cinnamon, licorice, notes of caramel malt, notes of resin, dark candy sugar. Body is lower than expected, very easy drinking beer, finish is very perfumed with spices notes as well as agrumes.
4.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
I like this balanced Trappist beer a lot, it has everything to be almost perfect, great balance between heaviness and sweet aftertaste, not too sweet.
Also its not trying to be too heavy like some of the 10 % alcohol Trappists which are in my opinion going a bit too far, because they already give you a little headache after drinking 1 too quickly.
Very, very good beer!
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20
From the 750 ml. bottle stamped 10-173-14. It pours a reddish-amber with a soft, but short lasting head. The aroma is full of sweet Belgain sugar, clean malts, and a vague cherry scent. The body is in the medium range and holds together well on the tongue. Up front it is sweet with a more resiny bitterness halfway through and a slight dry ending.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Ein herber und trocken-malziger Grundton bestätigt sich schnell. Desweiteren sehr prickelnd, was den Aromenaufbau etwas hemmt. Die Malzigkeit ist weiter sehr trocken, eine im Mittelteil aufkommende Gewürznote kann sich dagegen nicht durchsetzen. Immerhin wird das Malz nun röstiger, gleichzeitig erscheint ein bitteres Aroma. Ausbalancierter Nachgeschmack, besser als der Rest des Bieres.
