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.

Bottle shared with Steve and Eric. Pours a beautiful brown with a thick tan head. Aromas of smokey fruit and a belgian monastery. Flavors of plum and figs and hints of choc.

Pour is a deep reddish brown like polished wood. Big tan head moderately creamy. Smells a little sour with caramel sweet undertones. Taste is sour and woody with cherry and mushrooms Feels light in the mouth without being watery. An easy beer to drink,

Pours a dark ruby-brown with a lasting layer of off-white foam and some lacing. Aroma is sweet and fruity, reminiscent of sorghum ale, oddly. Tastes disarmingly quaffable - sweet with a hint of smoke, spicy finish, a tad watered-down but still quite pleasant. Milky, though thin body with light carbonation. Well-executed and quaffable Belgian ale. Yum!

12 oz bottle as picture shows. Pours a dark brown with off white head. I was really impressed with this dubbel. The beer description is very accurate. Excellent palate.

I thought this one was lacking a pronounced flavor, but it was still pretty good. Easy to drink, but I’ll take a Westmalle or Chimay over this any day.

Apperance is almost dark. Aroma and taste, good and fruity. I tought about Westmalle dubbel when I tried it, but less taste.

Bottle split with BillVanE. Man, theres a lot going on here, but nothing really standing out further than anything else. A decent amount of malt and hops in the nose, a hint of smoke in the taste, a little bit of darker fruits and a yeasty finish encompass this great brew. Not sure if its worth the price (not sure of the price) but a great easy drinking treat. Cheers!

Classic dubbel.
