2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/2033ml bottle from Alko in Hetta. Shared at XI Beer Session 18. Nov 2010. Dark amber body with beige head. Malty, prunes and dates to the nose. Hints of alcohol in both aroma and taste, but most of all the flavour is a mix of sweet olum, prunes and nutmeg. Still the aftertaste is soapy and oily. Disappointment!

Ok dubbel. Pours clear blond with fizzy head and some lacing. Lively carbonation. Some floral, some barrel in aroma. Finishes with some Paul bitterness. Some perfumed sweetness. Well balanced but light overall. Bottle from vitis

Tap @ Vlaamsche Reus, Wageningen. Brown beer again. A lot of banana in the aroma. Banana is all over in the taste. Very smooth beer with a dry finish. Sweet. Overall it’s a lot of banana when I think of this one. Easy going Abbey Dubbel. Good.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Hogerdijk, Culemborg. Clear red brown with a big beige head. Caramel aroma with some dark fruits. Nice bittersweet caramel flavour. Aftertaste is a bit shortlived but all in all it’s a nice dubbel.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle with best before of 23/12/13 to Chimay trappist glass...
Aroma: Caramel, toasted/roasted malts, fruits, spices, smells a little hot for the percentage. Slight sour/funk going on as well.
Appearance: Slightly cloudy burgundy red color, huge tan head.
Taste: Sour, bitterness, burnt caramel, spices.
Palate: Quite subtle flavours but there’s a slight mouth puckering sensation going on, tastes kinda tannic like a red. Extremely carbonated, I’d say excessive for the style and it’s kinda hot as the aroma indicated. Overall though the good outshines the bad.
Overall: Solid beer, nothing groundbreaking but it’s still an enjoyable brew. 6.5% huh? It gets you a little more hagged than you’d think....makes me wonder.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap. Clear medium brown with a fizzy off white head. Sweet, malty, toffee and molasses aroma and taste with light banana and bubble gum on the back end and coffee notes throughout. Not bad.
