Commercial Description:
Has a very distinctive bouquet: yeasty, fruity and slightly smoky. In palate, it has notes of port, raisins and black chocolate. Editor's note: Apparently production has moved from Van Steenberge to du Bocq as of Sept 2007.

A very nice Dubbel. Classic features are prevalent in the handcrafted beer. The taste is tremendous but a strong aftertaste held be back from giving it a higher rating."

Clear dark amber with a small off-white head. Burned toffee aroma, with some light roasted chestnut and earthy hops. Very fizzy carbonation, malt driven body. Flavours of toffee, yeast, chocolate toasted malt and dried fruit. Slightly warming sweet/spicy finish. Medium bitterness. Very nice.

Pours a very dark and cloudy brown - opaque with hints of burnt orange and amber visible where light shines through the glass. The head pours exceptionally thick and light beige. The foam dissipates relatively quickly, leaving a thin layer of many-sized bubbles leaving lots of lace on the glass. The aroma first hits you with yeast. Hints of soft fruit and citrus fruit and then some sweet malts follow the yeast. The flavor starts a bit sweet and dusty - some yeast, some toffee, and some fruit. The initial flavor also has some dark caramel, toasted bread, and roasted malt flavors - which stay into the middle of the tongue. The middle of the tongue also presents some interesting fruit and malts. The finish is somewhat dry and bittersweet. The mouthfeel is quite light, bubbly, and creamy. Overall - a very straight-forward dubbel that is very pleasing.

Bottle. Purs a nice and dark with slightly brown two finger head. Good combo of fruits with overall dry finish. Good aftertaste that makes you want more. Expensive but a good beer!
