Initially clear orange/brown color. Becomes cloudy upon yeast-depot pouring. Quickly dying head. Amber malty aroma, vanilla. Sweet and sour, amber malty taste, like a very weak and thin La Chouffe. Not really a typical double. Ok palate.

Murky brown color, not much head. Sahti-like fruity banana aroma. Quite sweet, banana and woody - kind of juniper-like, notes. Some alcohol and yeast. Crisp carbonation. Very close to sweet and dark sahti.

2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 TaxiDriver (1372) - Stadland, GERMANY - SEP 14, 2008
Bottle. Strong malty smell, fresh bread, moderate alcoholic, light molasses. A small off-white creamy head, rather fast disappearing. A dark red body. Light sweet and malty taste with a rather short duration. Medium body, light creamy, soft carbonation. Only light alcoholic finish. Good dubbel taste, nice one.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 MiP (11783) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - FEB 9, 2008
Bottle, 7.5%. Malty aroma, some fresh pepper and alcohol notes. Hint of butter. Hazy red/brown colour, small light brown head. Good mouthfeel. Sweet, malty, and sugary flavour. Quite syrupy, but nice. Some bubble gum, probably from Belgian type yeast. Even at 7.5% it could use more alcohol to balance it, but I still like it.

Chocolate aroma with a hint of apple. Yeasty flovor with apple, chocolate and a hint of metal. Thin. This is the Burg beer with the cleanest palate. Some points deducted because the beer is too thin. More malt, less sugarand maybe some more hygiene (the brew kettle is in the middle of the beer shop, therefore a good chance of infections)and you have a good beer!
