3.7 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20Dark fruit - figs and raisins comprise the nose. Pours a dark brown with mostly diminishing tan head and no lacing. The taste is lightly sweet with notes of figs, raisins, and sweet malts. Medium-light bodied with crisp carbonation. Overall, a good example of a Dubbel. Would drink again.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Amber colour, clear. Medium head, weak retention. Smells sweet, caramel. Taste: very sweet caramel and malts. Then, strong carbonation ending in a short lived very mild bitter and sweet aftertaste. Little character or balance. Not impressive.

[330ml bottle, The BeerHive, Edinburgh] Brownish-red, slightly hazy, beer with a large puffy white head. Aroma is leather, spices, wood, wet straw and stone fruit. Similar flavours, with the sweeter, caramel elements coming out towards the end, alongside a decent lick of alcohol [25042013]

February 2011. From a corked 750 ml. bottle. Pours redbrown with a tan head. Good dubbel characters but lacks a bit of structure.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy dark amber with airy off-white head. Clear aroma of malt and caramel. Ditto taste, with a slightly sourish aftertaste. A nice one.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Decent Dubbel but needed a little more umph. Nice standard bready and malty aroma that goes with the style. Maybe some added spice. The color was a bread-crust brown with a small head that quickly dissipated. Malt backbone that was not heavy. A little sharp aftertaste but not distasteful. No recognizable hops presence.
