UPDATED: JUN 5, 2006 Rerate: tap, de Pintelier, Groningen. After a couple of years i tried this beer again, and it isn’t that bad. But the brewery has changed brewers in the meantime, so that might be the trick. Nowadays, it’s a decent double beer, although it still lacks some body. Originale rating: Nut brown color. This is Gueuze sourness mixed with dubbel malty sweetness. A bad mix i would say. Sourness is not something i’d like to taste in a dubbel.

Dark brown with medium head. Thick syrupy sweetness, some molasses, brown sugar, and a hint of spice. Tried with Paul and Imran at the Arends Nest in Amsterdam.

30 cl. bottle @ home. Brown with an off-white head. aroma is light, some malts and chocolate. tastes slightly bitter-sweet with a bittery aftertaste. A little to watery for my taste and too thin for a dubbel. Not bad but also not really that good.

Dark brown colour. Thin lacy head. Strong aroma of red fruit. Sticky sweetness. A little bit of woody dryness in the finish.

light bread and light brown sugar,amber, hazy, off white foam, light sweetness, lightly bitter, light body, creamy, soft carbonation, long bitter finish.

Colour is brown and its hazy. Has an off-white head, mostly lasting. Aroma is moderate malty, notes of chocolate. Moderate sweet flavor, finish light bitter. Creamy texture and soft carbonation.

Bottle. Creamy off-white good mostly lasting head. Dark amber colour. Moderate malty and light hoppy and moderate yeasty aroma. Moderate bitter flavor. Caramellic and week ester notes. Average moderate bitter chocolate finish. Oily palate.

UPDATED: FEB 7, 2012 Bottle from Odijk, Holland. Deep brown colour with a white head. Deep fruity aroma with some toffee. Fruity and a mild toffee flavour

Bottle that I picked up from a Mitra off licence, Amsterdam, 29.09.11 consumed at Isobels, Eardisley, Herefordshire, 14.10.11 Dark brown in colour with a light haziness, there is an off-white head atop. Some chocolate and a slightly harsh bitterness running through this, a little dark fruit in the mouth concludes matters, its ok but never really excited me that much. A7 A3 T6 P3 Ov14 3.3

Bottle. I’m usually a big fan of dubbels, but this one couldn’t impress me that much. Average dubbel. Nothing too exciting going on with any feature, just a decent beer. Nice to have tried, but that’s it.

Bottle 33cl from shop in Bodegraven, Holland. cuivre, beige. Arôme malt caramel, note fruitée de prune avec une touche de de toffee. En bouche, assez similaire, prune et cerise noire, note grillée avec palais de levure abbaye, style belge.
