Pours a beautiful bright, lighter shade of gold w/ medium sized creamy froth. Aroma is of sweet lemony herbs. Full nectar / soft residual effers. Flavors of sweet lemon drops, caramel, slight leather w/ a kick ass asprin burn on the finish to balance out. Very complex. It’s a sweeter brew but the big hopy asprin finish acts as a palate cleanser. I just wanted to keep drinking it. Not a trace of flavor from the 12% alcohol. Amazing. Highly recommended. If you like Dogfish head 120, you’ll love this one at half the price.

Utterly fantastic. A personal favourite, and I have my eye firmly fixed on this small brewery.

A wonderfull brew with taste evolution.

This is a masterpiece. The most complex beer ever drunk, simply perfect in the mix of hops and malt.

Anyada 1987. Genial mostra del que pot donar de sí una gran cervesa preparada per envellir. Notes de mel, cremositat, sense carbònic. Per prendre amb postres o com a copa digestiva. Embriagadora, sublim.

2009 : Deep amber beer. Extremely tasty, AROMA : Caramel, pine, lightly toasted. Heavy, bitter and hoppy. Full body, creamy.
2010: Same with a little more spicy. Extra long finish...
THE beer to taste!

Almost looks like apple juice on the pour. Heavy apple and raisin in the nose. First taste is heavily malty, then candy aple, caramel. Finishes with a dark fruit and honey sweetness turning sour near the end. Warming alcohol presence completes this great brew. I REALLY dig the sweetness mixed with slight sour in this beer. One of my new favorites!!!!

UPDATED: APR 26, 2012 Bordeaux-cask aged vintage from 1982
Consumed at Kulimator in May 2006
Deep purple colored body with a still white filmy head. Very robust nose full of scotch, port and sherry, with notes of black cherry and old oak casks. Thickness and texture, while expected it to be huge, is silky, tannic and wine-like. Rich, silky, oily, resinous... PERFECT palate. Was told that this was the favorite beer of Dirk Van Dyck, who runs Kulminator, and I can see why.

My ratings of the 2004 vintage are probably in the 4.4 - 4.8 range.
My ratings of the 2007 vintage (tasted young) are probably in the 4.0 - 4.3 range.

Another amazing beer from De Dolle. A heavyweight ale loaded with candied fruit character which matches its sourness perfectly. World classic.
