KyotoLefty (62), Kyoto, Japan Aug 29, 2008 330 ml bottle. Dark brown with an orange tint. Almost no head, but a bit of lace. Aroma: rich malt, chocolate and caramel, grains, dark fruit, Rich malty flavor, dry for a dubbel, good roasted action. Belgian yeast, dark fruits. Nice balance. Touch of citrus. A very good, somewhat stout-like dubbel. Well done. Quite complex. Doesn’t have that big yeasty Belgian taste, and probably not really sweet enough. Clean, slightly fruity finish. allfreej (286), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Aug 29, 2008 Bottled (12 oz). Mahogony pour, tan bubbly head. Lacy. Fruity nose--cherry, alomnd, yeast. Flavor is malt, cherry, cinnamon, yeast, spice. Dry finish. Medium, soft mouthfeel. ewestern (81), Ohio, USA Aug 25, 2008 Everything about this beer just seemed weak. Aroma was decent with light citrus coming through. Pour is a basic amber with an off white head. Watery and thin feeling citrus flavor that ended with a sharp bite. DrDavid (153), , Vermont, USA Aug 19, 2008 (Bottle). Fruity aroma. Dark red with small off white head. Flavor is pleasant enough, with fruits and sugar, but nothing special in the Abbey Dubbel category. There are a great many better choices alraicercsu (72), Ft.Collins, Colorado, USA Aug 16, 2008 750ml bottle. Pours a dark hazy brown. Smells of banna, malt and faint smell of alcohol. Flavor is sweet with a tangy finish.
