charcot25 (180), Cordova, Tennessee, USA Feb 1, 2008 Pours a deep amber to light brown with thick beige head. Aroma was muted with only some banana noted. Tastes sweet and spicy with some grape and port flavors. Also cocoa. Nice dry finish.
MrEcted1 (138), Wheat Ridge, Colorado, USA Jul 25, 2008 Very nice dubbel indeed! Pours a very dark brown hue with a monster head that sticks around. Smells of over-ripened apples, dark fruits, dates. Solid on the palate, a little sweet as you would expect but not cloying. Very easy to drink. Just a very good dubbel that has it’s own unique subtleties. Gets better as it warms! BoBoChamp (329), Gent, Belgium Jul 21, 2008 33cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, complex brew, yet easy to drink, hazy, rocky head, good brew
Ober (219), Best, Netherlands Jul 19, 2008 A hazy brown colored beer, with a foamy beige head. The aroma of fruits, malts and herbs. The taste of dark malts and fruits, like raisins. A little spicey and la little bitterness. A realy good beer. AndrewKScott (247), Lemont, Illinois, USA Jun 21, 2008 750 mL bottle bought by my girlfriend for my birthday.Pours a dark reddish brown with fluffy off-white head that dissipates slowly. Aroma is raisins, chocolate, dark fruit, cinnamon, candy sugar. Taste is great: dark, dried fruit, malt, chocolate, vanilla and wood. The candy sugar is apparent in the finish. A lovely dubbel, and a great birthday present. spagyetti (68), Puyallup, Washington, USA Jun 20, 2008 Bottle, corked and caged. I’ve been drinking the Donk for many years now, and all I can say is that. This is THE MVP of Dubbles!
