MrChris (110), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA Apr 15, 2007 Sweet fruity fermented on the nose. Almost no head. Dark red in color. Sweet fruity taste with spicy caramel right behind, but not overbearing. This is a big taste brew that almost over powers your taste buds. Lightly carbonated on the palate, but not flat. A little syrupy. Has a nasty sour aftertaste that takes getting use to. A flavorful brew that takes some getting use to.
flatmatt (113), Northville, Michigan, USA Nov 26, 2008 On tap at the brewpub, served in a tulip. Dark red brown with a small head. Muted yeasty and dark fruit aroma. Flavor is similar, with the expected dark fruit and yeasty cloves, but again a little watered down. It was served a bit on the cold side and the flavors came out a bit more as it warmed. Flavor is good, but it’s not strong enough. Hudspart (327), Hudsonville, Michigan, USA Sep 16, 2008 Bottle: Pours light with a thich head. Aroma of fruits and malts. Not bad, but not a great dubbel. jcwattsrugger (4087), Florida and, New Jersey, USA Aug 21, 2008 12 oz bottle-pours a thin light tan head and brown color. Aroma is medium malt, some musty dark fruit. Taste is medium malt, some musty dark fruit. Mild carbonation. hombrepalo (545), Chicago, Illinois, USA Aug 4, 2008 12oz bottle. Solid Dubbel. Overexceeded my expectation of this style. Yeasts were not as dominant as I would expect for a belgian style beer, but still a great make. Poured a dark brown color with some brownish head, minimal lace. Taste is carmely and fruity, some yeast. esay going brew with a pleasant aftertaste. Enjoyable to the finish. rudolf (1572), Buffalo, New York, USA Jul 12, 2008 Bottle. Goodbar Beer Club. Nose is nearly burnt malt, a bit of fruit, alcohol, yeasty & spicy. Flavor is rich malt, caramels, bitter (but not acrid) malts, tart, almost green apple but not quite - somehow tarter. Like a dubbel with a bit of cherry/stout/wood.
