Aug 19, 2005 Pours with a generous thick, fluffy head over an amber-orange body. Aromas of yeast, crystal malt, banana and raisin are noted although a bit faint. Palate is light and fizzy, but unfortunately a bit thin. Flavors of yeast, malt, raisin, figs and some spices make a clean presence, but are a bit febrile and fade quickly. Amazingly with such a lightweight overall presentation, the 8% alcohol is virtually undetectable. In general, not a bad Dubble, but a bit watery and average.

Oct 1, 2003 Reddish-brown, big head. Nose malty, sugary, maybe a bit of chocolate. Has noticeable candy sugars, follows with a spicy fruitiness, but ends a bit overly sour. Reminded me a bit of a sour mango.

Dec 12, 2001 Apricots, dates, prunes and nuts(all in that order). You can taste wee bits of the aforementioned flavours on varying sips. Head remains for entire beer. Root beer brown colour. Alcohol content was masked very well. Moderately sweet/rich. Malty, minimal hops. One problem, though. It left a bit of an acidic aftertaste.

Apr 28, 2007 Aroma has some dark fruit, some sweet malt. With halogen backlight the color is light ruby. The beige head is huge. The start is malty dark fruit, backed by a little yeasty spice. Medium+ mouthfeel. Fairly smooth. Very pleasant. Finish is mostly yeasty malt. It’s not sticky, but it’s not all that dry. The hoppy aftertouch is pretty mild. Decent, but perhaps not memorable.

Nov 8, 2001 This had more roasted malt flavors than any other double I’ve had. It also had sort of a weird dry-hoppines. Sampled on draft in america.

Dec 5, 2004 What a head and long lasting. In my proper glass it took a while to get to the liquid. Tart and slighly sour, not a bad beer just not a great one.
