3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Very foamy! Dosen’t have the Alcoholic punch that the Trippel has. High carbonation. My bottle was sitting for a week undisturbed I opened it and out comes the foam all over the place. I got used to the smell of this beer since it was all over me. Very fruity whenever I put it in my mouth it was automatic fizz. Good flavour. TOO MUCH CARBONATION.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Brown-amber pour, thick tan head, and nice lacing. Warming aroma of raspberries and grapes with a sweet, heavy malt and yeast scent. Solid mouth feel that seems earthy. Creamy with a mild finish. Dark fruits and lots of musty yeast. Licorice, molasses, and other gritty sugary treats. Flavor finishes with a hint of banana. Made for a real tasty night cap.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Came in the Exclusive Belgian ales gift pack, with 5 other brews (Christmas 2005). Best before 01/02/07. Pours a dark red-brown colour with a big fluffy tanned head. Retention is very long and good thick lace. The nose is milder than expected, with some spices, notes of coffee, raisins, plums, caramel and red apples. Smooth mouthfeel and medium bodied. The taste is also very light with some dark malt, dark fruits, slight bitterness and a clean finish. Very well brewed, just a tad too light on the palate and nose to be an awesome Dubbel.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from Beers of Europe. Reddish-brown pour with a beige head. Raisin, chocolate and blackcurrant aroma. Malts, raisins, chocolate and fig flavours. Malty-dry finish.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Poured an effervescent dark amber with a large frothy white head. Sweet caramel dark fruit aroma. Taste is slightly sweet and vinous, with notes of caramel and coffee. Dryness takes over the sweetness and makes the beer more drinkable. Slight metallic banana twinge to the finish, though not terribly offensive. A simple refreshing Dubbel.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
33cl bottle from the LCBO. Pours a clear deep mahogany colour with a large off white. Nice layered lacing. Aroma is yeast, esters, and sugar. Flavour is sweet dark esters and brown sugar. The sweetness lingers a tad, almost cloying. Medium body. A decent beer.
