Bottle from TheJester. Thanks a bunch!! Brewed 2009. Wow this beer is good! It pours dark brown with a medium long lasting creamy tan head. The aroma has loads of ripe dark fruit, black berries, sweet toasted caramel, light tobacco, light chocolate and port. The flavour is overripe fruit, light chocolate, light roast, light licorice, caramel and dark mollasses. Long dark fruity finish. Wow this is a fantastic brew indeed!

Ruby red tinted pour with a light tna head. Light cherry and caramel aroma, notes of grapes. Light sweetness with a cherries and a bit of rubber. Big alcohol finish.

341ml bottle, thanks CaptainCougar. Clear nut-brown body with a small beige head that wholly dissipates. Aroma is moderately sweet, milk chocolate, some raisin, vinous. Taste is moderately sweet, milk chocolate, raisin, light vinous/alcohol. Sticky medium-full body, low carbonation.

Decent little double, some nice roasty notes, with some caramelized raisins and solid herbal hops. The finish is a bit astringent.

Bottle: Poured a deep hazy brown color ale with a huge off-white foamy head with great retention and good lacing. Aroma of deep sweet malt with traces of candi sugar and nice dry raisins with a subtle notes of anise. Taste is more complex then I had expected with loads of maderized sugar and dry raisins with some great notes of candi sugar ad deep caramelized malt. Body is quite full with limited filtration and great carbonation with no signs of alcohol. While I appreciated most offering form this brewer I must admit that this is quite better then I had expected.

Muddy brown in colour with a large lingering beige head, excellent lacing. The aroma is quite malty, lots of caramel, dark fruits, christmas cake and some yeast. The flavour has some light alcohol, moderate spice, lots of burnt christmas cake, caramel sweetness. Bitter warming mouthfeel, medium body, moderate carbonation. Finishes long, bitter with a hint of burnt coffee beans at the very end.

Another solid offering from Bièropholie. A very drinkable and hardy dubbel.
