Apr 3, 2008 Bottle. Pours deep amber with a beige head. Sweet aroma with notes of caramel, melon, and yeast. Medium body. Flavor is again sweet fruit with notes of caramel, honeydew, and yeast. Maybe a light note of spice as well. Pretty good.

Mar 29, 2008 Smells yeasty and slightly chocolatey and coffee-life. Colour is a deep, almost opaque reddish-brown with a creamy head. Taste is not very carbonated, malty with a bit of a bitter aftertaste. Nice lacing, though.

Mar 22, 2008 Bottle Batch #60. Reddish amber colour with a huge head. Aroma of chocolate, caramel and little toffee-like. Flavour of roastedness, caramel and very watery. Ends up light bitter. Very dull for a dubbel.

Mar 21, 2008 Pour a dark brown with a big head - you should pour very, very slowly. Nice aroma with a bit of nut and dry fruit coming through. The taste was quite satisfying and I was very impressed by Allagash’s effort. A little light in body. Better as it warmed a little as the full flavor and aroma really came out. Again, I was very impressed with this effort. The flavor was a bit nutty and carmel like. Not quite a Belgian Dubbell but a decent American version.

Mar 20, 2008 Dark brown and silky. Khaki head. Faint smell of prunes and bananas. The flavor is very dry with plenty of effervescence. Light bodied for an abbey dubbel.
