3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20Pours a strong amber/tan color with a frothy beige head. Smells of spice and fruit and malt. Tastes as it smells initially, with it’s many flavors assaulting your tastebuds, but then leaves you lingering with an uncalled for bitter aftertaste. A decent dubbel.
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.

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.
