4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
EXP. 2014, has been lying in a basement for a couple of years and gains incredible taste. Cereals, yeast and malts, get even better with the years. I reckon we drink our chimays way too young, a beer needs to rest before it gets opened!

Bottle @ home. la si trova ovunque. Il profumo è di frutta estiva e di lievito. schiuam beige a metà tra il cremoso ed il compatto molto durevole. il gusto è un po’ troppo sbilanciato a favore dei luppoli. Gli manca un po’ di sprint alcolico per renderla aggressiva come una St. Bernardus Prior 8, e il gusto di frutta gialla viene un po’ sopraffatto dal caffè e dal finale troppo astringente. Il corpo è abbastanza pieneo, di finitura oleosa, ma non invita più di tanto alla bevuta. troppo ordinaria.

Plums. Dried fruit. Balanced. Alcohol hidden well. Smooth. Spice. Just throwing in keywords for later.

Like THE blue, an awesome rough beer... Bitter and stingy.. Dried fruit, yeast, slightly Bready malts... Iets more watert and laks THE aromatisch depth of THE blue

purs amber , big white foam. smell is sugary,
taste is sugar, too high carbo, reminding at the blue somehow, , yet even less complex. malty.
4.7 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Pours a very dark copper colour, hazy with a nice looking thin white head. Wonderful aroma, fruits, caramel, very well hidden alcohol. Sweet, but bitter finish. Medium body. Creamy texture. Good carbonation due to refermentation in the bottle. Overall an amazing abbey dubbel, perhaps not the best of all the Trappist beers, but definitely worth every cent (which, by the way, are a lot of cents...). Salut!

Beautiful Trappist with surprisingly light amber color for a Dubbel style. Quite fruity on the mouth.

Bottle. Pours clear dark red with a quickly dissipating fizzy white head, Aroma is very mild with apricot, banana, strawberry, sugar, bubblegum, red berries, spice, clove and raisin. Taste is light+ sweet, bitter and light tangy. Body is light+, texture is thin, carbonation is much too lively. Finish is watery but super dry and short except for some light heat and astringency. The finish reminds me of drinking carbonated water with big bubbles - it´s semi-acidic and dries the mouth out.

Keg at Lowlander, 27th March 2013. This is pretty good, not my favourite style, but a nice drink.
