dark reddish-brown colour, fine creamy head, very malty, caramel aroma, sweet and quite tart, dry malty finish

Bottle: Deep reddish-amber coloured, very stable mid-sized sandy head; fruity nose (dark berries, a bit zesty, mixed with citrus-fruits), underpinned by darh malt; moderate sweetish-bitter flavour, light to medium-bodied; warming caramelly and sweet-fruity finish, followed by some bitterness in the very end. Nothing special..........

Bottle. Brown colour with a beige head. aroma is sweet, caramel, candy sugar, malt. Flavour is sweet, caramel, sugar, candy sugar, fruit, malt, alcohol, hop. Medium to full body. Nice beer.

Dark chestnut beer; cream-brown head. Aroma of dark bread, Pumpernickel. Bitter from dark malts on sweet base, without any refinement. Maybe some licorice.Medium-filled, no aftertaste. Not very rewarding. If short of choice, however...

A brown beer with a long lasting off white head. The aroma has hints of banana and winter fruit whilst the taste is fairly malty and has some candy sugar. It is however thin for a dubbel

Dark brown with a white head this beer has good, sweet chocolate aromas. Coffee and plain chocolate are to the fore in terms of flavour, whilst the finish is dry and bitter. Dubbel by numbers? Perhaps, but it got it right.

Bottle. Redish colour with a huge off-white head. Weak dark fruits aroma and taste. Medium body with a sweet finish.

330ml bottle. Shared Tranquility’s - thanks! Dark red, think light head. Aroma is very perfumed, a bit shampooey, and also sweet malt. Taste similar, very sweet, extremely perfumey - as Marcus says, it’s like perfumed make-up or lipstick. Quite malty, and a bit fizzy. But I just can’t get over the over-dominant perfume taste. Is it made with 200 whores’ handkerchiefs?
