nutty malts, with little yeast and sweetness. Taste has more alcohol than expected, malt and sweetness which makes it very drinkable.

Bottle. Small off-white head. Dark red clear body. Aroma of berries. Flavor of berries and caramel plus a good deal of carbon dioxide. Well rounded and pleasant.

Shiny amber, nice brownish head. Quite weak aroma from grassy hops and some malts. ALso mildly maltywith some bread and some dried fruits. Quite a malty flavor, nutty and with some spices in the finish. But al ltogether alittle too mild to be really good.

3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: JUL 8, 2006 Room temperature sample in requisite goblet. Noisily fizzing, soap-scented dubbel brimming with creamy suds. Flavour is blood and iron, with a handful of raisins. Some chocolate in the background. If I knew what prunes tasted like, those as well. Palate is creamy and consistent to the end. Mellow, stoutish, fruity dubbel. A real grower.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Murky brown with scarlet hidden in the depths. Soft frothy head which whips up on pouring, but then settles into Brussels lace. Dark malty aroma - brown bread. Mouthfeel has usual bottled beer harsh carbonation. Difficult to get fully at the flavours through the prickling bubbles. Some red fruits in there, some acid, some tree bark. Acceptable enough, but nothing special. As Kasta says, let it settle a while before drinking.
