12 oz bottle. Pale golden beer with a white head. Aroma is malty and lightly spicy. Some soft cinnamon and toasted malts. A light chocolate character despite the pale appearance. Fairly industrial malts with a bit of clove/nutmeg and spice. Toasty and sweet. A bit of honey. Not bad, but not good either.

Oct 11, 2008 Smells like a cheap beer, and certainly not a double, but if it were classified some other way maybe people wouldn’t be so hard on it...Expectations! But, not a bad beer; I enjoyed it.

Sep 25, 2008 Not a bad beer, I wouldn’t classify it as a belgian abbey. More like a special amber ale I guess you could compare it to Fat Tire. Let’s face it it’s 5 1/2 % ABV that’s not a dubbel. For a mass produced ale it’s drinkable.

Sep 19, 2008 Bottle. Poured a cloudy amber with a small tan head. Aroma of nutmeg and cinnamon. Flavor reflects the aroma. Decent but not great.

Sep 19, 2008 Not a bad beer, but a far cry from a dubbel. Need’s a lot more depth and complexity to be called a dubbel. Again, not bad, but a little thin.

Aug 4, 2008 12oz Bottle ’07: Clear amber w/ a small off-white head. Some slight candy sugar in the aroma, not much else. Flavor is sweet malts. Nothing exciting here...time to move along.
