Burton Bridge Tickle Brain Ale

Brewed by Burton Bridge
Style: Abbey Dubbel
Burton-on-Trent, England

From A Bottle.Hazy brown in colour with a small head,aroma is of apples and grass, taste is of citric fruits,some hops and heavy alcohol.More of an itch than a tickle.

Well, I let it settle for about a week; still came out a cloudy amber colour with a slim off-white head. Sour aroma. Sour, malty, woody and fruity flavour. I’m not sure I’ve had a representative sample, but I didn’t like this.

Bottle. Cloudy brown colour. Large, long lasting beige head. Sweet, toffee, dough, vanilla, orange, grapefruit-bitter finish. Medium-high carbonation - let it settle!

Bottle. Dark amber with big off whiter head. Sour aroma. Big full body with sour aftertaste. Quite unusual and not what I was expecting. Pretty good but I did not like the aftertaste.

Amber coloured body with a thin off-white head. Aroma of caramel and malt. Medium to Heavy-bodied; Super strong malt flavour with caramel showing through. Aftertaste contains a very strong finish that lasts long in the palate. I sampled this beer from Jeremy at Smokeless Joe’s after our May RB Party on 15-May-2004 in Toronto, Ontario.

Big head upon pouring with a very lively body.The alcohol comes accross very clearly.Quite complex and certainly different for a British produced ale.

Reddish brown foaming out of the bottle upon opening. Sour dry fruit, raisen, and candy like banana nose. Foamy w/large sparkle, dry prune, currant, cherry and noticeable alcohol on the finish.

[At Fete de la Biere 2004, Lausanne] A dark amber beer with a fine lasting beige head. The aroma is faint of oranges. The flavor is very powerful, but rather simple for an Abbey Dubbel; it is very spicy of which some are hops and coriander, which gives it a dry end. The flavor also contains notes of citrus.
