3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours semi-cloudy dark brown with a HUGE thick bubbly head. Aroma is very sweet roasted malt/sugar/brown sugar. Liitle sour up front, nutty undertones in the middle and a very nice sweet malt finish. Very good overall.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottled:<ii>
Aroma is sweet and fruity. Taste has candies but is not too sweet. Sparkling lemonade-taste, fruity. Finish is dry but with only few bitterness. Something astringent and sourish. All in all to vineous.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
330ml brown bottle. Red brown colour, head is gerenous, fluffy and off white. Sweet brown sugar aroma. Starts with a slight malt sweetness - notes of light brown sugar and raisins, then gets bit sour tasting, notes of lemon show up near the finish.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: JUL 30, 2005 33 cl bottle. The head is just unreal, large and puffy off white and dense. Maybe the Oerbier glass wasn’t the best choice here. I love making mountain designs when pouring stuff like this. Aroma is both malty and bready along with fruits like plums and cherries. Taste is right up there with the good dubbels with just a bit of sourness and pepper. Taste is cloying with over ripe banana and chocolate. I got more of the yeast flavor in the back end. This stuff is good.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Red-brown color, light sweet fruity caramel aroma, light sour taste, medium body, light sour finish.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Deep reddish brown, cloudy, with a beige head. Mildly sweet, some ripened bananas, honey, and malt. Kind of dry, alcohol is hidden pretty well, lacks a bit in the body. Not bad.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Rusty chestnut brown with a full head. Aromatically the same as the trippel but with a tad more chocolate and banana. It’s sweet and clean with no aftertaste that mars the trippel. Honeycomb is present. A bit bitter... but very good.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Very malty and honey aroma. Blended palate, smooth at first, some alcohol and slight bitter malt aftertaste. Not as good as the triple, but an allright beer.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Dark, malty color with a decent head. Fair aroma of dark fruits, malt and a litte caramel. Initial taste is sweet, flavor is subtle. Fairly smooth just the overall character of a double ale isnt there. Hops are faint, malt presense takes over. A drinkable beer just woudnt want to fast on it for 40 days.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Hazy, muddy brown coloured body with a dense tan head. Aroma of malt, raisins, caramel and some nuts. Medium-bodied; Odd cardboard flavour with some malt and raisins coming through. Aftertaste dry and bitter-a bit offensive. Overall, decent but not the best dubbel i’ve had! I sampled this 33 cL bottle from a bottle shop purchased in St. Kilda (Melbourne), Australia.
