Nov 15, 2006
Drank in a trappist glass. Beautifull dark caramel color. Nice smokey head. Aromas of cinnamon, cloves, a hint of apples, pears. Very nice floral aromas (hops). Alot of the aromas you can taste. Add a little caramel, raisins and a creamy overall feel to it. Good bitterness. Very good overall dubbel.

Nov 30, 2008 Bottle from total wine. Brown pour, light tan head. Nice raisin, dates, figs, spice cake and yeast on the nose. Flavor is oh so smooth and nice. Fruity, some yeast, spices and a good mouthfeel.

Nov 28, 2008 pours dark cloudy ruby red with intense smell of yeast. flavor of dark fruit like figs and raisins with bready overtones. mild spicy finish. Hardly any alcohol bite. Very good abbey dubbel, at least on par with Chimay.

Nov 1, 2008 (750ml bottle from Twin Liquors on October 31, 2008) Yep, it’s an abbey. Murky orange/brown body, intensely sweet aroma, and just as sweet on the tongue... fruity, as expected. Nothing unique, but not unpleasant. I have to remind myself, though, to only drink sweeter (Belgian) beers like this when I’m in the mood for a dessert brew.
