Commercial Description:
This Belgian-style Abbey Dubbel is an exceptionally complex beer with many interwoven flavors. This classic-style Abbey beer features an immense head with a fruity nose and a generous body. Malty in the middle, the beer features a clean, almondy dry finish and a slight alcohol warmth. More like a wine than a beer—it has a lot of the qualities of a fine Burgundy. The beer is bottle-conditioned.

Bottle: Pours dark read color with an off white heat. Yeasty, malty aroma. First sip: mmm... nice beer. Smooth... silky savory yeast taste that is balanced with a malt flavor and hint of hops. This is a simple Belgian that is not too yeasty or sweet. A perfect balance of yeast and malt which equals a savory beer.

bottle. This was likely the worst beer I’ve ever had. Bought a six pack to try and forced the first one down - second attempt went in the sink drain. Maybe I got a bad batch but this stuff was gross. Aroma was of musty, sweaty socks. Carbonation was similar to a soda pop with big non-uniform bubles that fizzed like a cola. Fell off the palate like inconsistent water. Taste was the worst part - bad, bad and more bad. hints of rubber and that stuff you drink if you have just swallowed some poison.

Bottle->trappist glass: Pours a small, dimishing, off-white head that exhibits spare lacing atop of a cloudy, dark amber body. Aroma is of cookie, herbs, and sweat (yeast); the body is medium, the texture is alcoholic, the carbonation is lively, and the finish is astringent. This beer is also lightly acidic that finishes with a sour milkiness. Not a bad beer, but not one of my favorites.

Nice amber color upon pour with a small head. The smell is very sweet. The beer is a bit mild for a dubbel and the finish is smooth but sweet.
