3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
March 2013. Bottled Oct 2011. Enduring head as is expected from the De Molens. Smells of spirits and vegetables…I hope the taste doesn’t follow the nose. Taste is caramel malts with a weird semi-sharp vegetable finish. The dodgy aftertaste mellows over time. Salted caramel, malts, raisin. Not much balance to it. Some nice elements, but I’m not impressed overall.

Bottle at Monks Porter House.
Brownish with a creamy white head. Very malty with toffee and dried fruit. Some notes of alcohol and phenols. Not brilliant but tasty enough.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Appearance: Deep amber color with a tan head that leaves some lacing.
Aroma: Balanced and a bit sweet fruity (raisins?).
Palate: Medium body. Slightly sweet and an ok bitterness. Soft carbonation.
Taste: Deep caramel malty and a fine fruity background. Raisins and light spicy.
Overall impression: An unusual fine Dopplebock. Normally no big fan. But this was a nice example.
Personal stats: Bottle as De Molen Dubbelbock from Vinmonopolet Oslo - Vika in Oslo, Norway.
