A rather thin and tasteless dubbel compared to what’s out there. Aroma of dark fruits but not very strong. Pour was a dark brown with barely a tan head of big bubbles. Taste was thin and unexciting. Could pick up prune, licorice and yeast but the yeast is very faint and the thin body brings out an alcoholic wine tasting burn. Reading other posts I wonder if I got a bad bottle? May try again.

Dec 22, 2008 Pours a dark brown, well carbonated beige head. Nose is a bit sweet, but certainly spiced- anise. Flavor is extremely smooth- sweet malts and well carbonated (not overly so like the blond). Also smooth finish- moderate bitterness, but more immediate sweetness. Enjoyable.

Dec 14, 2008 Deep brown pour that is slightly hazy. Sweet aroma of prunes and quince. Stewed fruits dominate the palate as well. Some light spice and wood. Rather thin mouthfeel to me.

Dec 3, 2008 Dark amber color with a big tan head. Aroma of sour dark fruits and some spice. Flavor of dark fruits, some sourness, and a little chocolate.

Oct 31, 2008 Smell is grapes, alcohol, apple, fruits, very fruity. The look is clear red to amber in color. Sweetness and again lots of fruit in the taste. Tastes decent. Also some caramel.
