Nov 17, 2007 Very dark brown pour with some red highlights and a lasting white head. Malty aroma with brown sugar, dark fruits and notes of red wine. Mouthfeel is creamy, nice carbonation and medium bodied. Flavor reveals a lot more fruit and floral character, as well as some chocolate and nuttiness. Pretty good.

Nov 16, 2007 Updated: Nov 20, 2007Bottle labeled dubbel, not dubbel reserve. Light smoky malts or toffee aroma. Looked and tasted more like a bock as the beer warmed. Very enjoyable.

Nov 11, 2007 Dark redish with a small head. Very complex and hard to classify. Not as harsh as most dubbels. Soft and malty with a complex alcohol finish. then the chocolate kicks in just a bit. Will have to try again to better pin down but might just be imposible to come to a final conclusion.

Nov 7, 2007 12 oz bottle: Small foam off white head that lingers and a cloudy almost opeque amber pour. Aroma is rather floral with dark fruit coming to the forefront and a nice malt characteristic. Wonderful scent! Taste is bready with the dark fruits coming out in this dubbel and malts. And quite liberally spiced as well. Palate is quite clean for with a lingering malt aftertaste that is quite good. Overall, I think this beer is definately good for a sipping brew. I would buy this again.

Oct 31, 2007 Aroma of dates, figs, prunes. Flavors of bourbon, tobacco, molasses, and toffee and a suggestion of cocoa. Finish is nice and dry with lingering biscuit notes.

Oct 30, 2007 Poured reddish brown with a very little head. Taste was very straight forward, dark fruits, candi sugar. Nothing too good or too bad about this. Just OK.

Oct 28, 2007 Updated: Apr 16, 20088/28/07 Rated blind from "Better Know a Style: Abbey Dubbel" tasting. Orange/red color with small off-white head. Alc aroma with light fruit all very light. Slight dark fruit flavor, grapefruit and alc. Thin and watery. Not much goin on, too thin. 5/3/5/2/10 = 2.5
4/16/08 Rerate 12oz bottle from west lakeview liquors, chicago, thanks 17thfloor and davinci. Mirky red-brown with large creamy beige head. Aroma is sweet yeast, nuttiness, red apple, a little grapiness as well. Flavor is dirty roasted malt with red apple sweetness, a little chalky as well. Thin but creamy body. I’m not really digging on this beer again and percieving it to be out of style as well. Though I’m getting all the alc notes as the previous rating which is nice.
