A dark amber beer with a good head. It has a good fruit aroma and the flavor is very sweet - maybe a little too sweet.

(Bottle 33 cl) Dark brown, very hazy - almost opaque actually. Malty but surprisingly light in body considering the high alcohol volume. Some raisins and dried fruits in the aroma too. Decent indeed but hasn’t got the same sophistication as the besst Dubbels. 060194

Chestnut brown. Slight banana aroma. Sweetish, clean flavour. Burnt sugar and honey in the palate. Bitterish finish.

33 cL bottle. Pours dark brown with collapsing off-white head. Aroma is fruity. Sweet fruity flavour, light sourness too, I wonder if this was clean. Finish is much the same, quite stright forward.

Bottle. Brown with a light brown head. Aroma moderate malty and hoppy. Flavour is sweet and fruity, notes of caramel malts and mild spices too, slightly acidic finish.

Bottled. Hazy brown colour with mediumsized head. Aroma of caramel, malts and fruit. Also has some slight notes of alcohol lurking in the background. Flavour is caramellish, malty and toffeeish. Also some sweeness from fruits in the aftertaste. Good and wellbalanced.

Bottle. Dark brown colour. Cloudy. Plenty big light brown head. Malty and a little sour. Not much flavour for a dubbel. An 8% ABV beverage should taste of more.

Bottle. Clear orange coloured with a huge off white head. Aroma of caramel, spices, fruits and dried fruits. Flavour of spices, caramel and dried fruits. Fizzy palate.
