3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
My favorite of the samples at Big Time today. Hoppier than I expect from a Dubbel, with sweet dark malts, caramel or sugar, and an odd minty note in the hops. Cloudy, not quite brown, Full mouthfeel, dry finish.

Murky dark brown colour. Phenolic, brown sugary, bubblegummy aroma. Sweet, fairly clean (lacking yeastiness for style is what I mean here) malty flavour with hints of bubblegum and toffee. Sweet finish.
