Leighton (6961) - London, ENGLAND - APR 1, 2013
Bottle at the ChrisO Snow Tasting, London - one of my contributions!!! Pours clearish, brown-red with a fine, creamy tan cap. Sugary brown bread in the nose. Big sweet flavor, simple, with semi-dark malts, brown sugar, toffee. Medium to full bodied with average carbonation. Lightly warming finish with more sugary brown bread. Simple stuff on the whole.

FatPhil (7498) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - FEB 18, 2013
750ml bottle (Snow@ChrisO)
Old, aged, papery aroma. Flat. Papery palate and taste. Dull. No hint of 7%, but still not a very good beer. Sticky and mashy and malty.

thirdeye11 (5001) - Dallas, Texas, USA - FEB 17, 2013
(75cl dated 8-9-11 thanks to bu11zeye) clear brown copper with wispy tan bubbles. Nose of rich raisin, brown sugar, honey and caramel. Taste of brown sugar, lightly roasty, honey, a bit watery in the finish.

MrW (227) - Londerzeel, BELGIUM - FEB 11, 2013
75cl bottle. Dark red/brown beer, no head. I just didn’t like it. There was something wrong in the taste.

Scopey (3246) - Croydon, Greater London, ENGLAND - JAN 26, 2013
Bottle at ChrisO Snow Tasting, thanks to Leighton. It pours deep ruby-brown with a small off-white head. The nose is candy cane, caramel, wood, spice and earth. The taste is wood, earth, spice, candy, cola, leather, orange peel, tinned peach, plum, prune and raisin, with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Perhaps a bit thin for the style and fairly unexciting.

mR_fr0g (441) - Hertfordshire, ENGLAND - JAN 24, 2013
Bottle at Chriso’s snow tasting 20/01/2013. Chesnut brown with a big beige head. Nice belgian yeast esters aromas. Some raisin and alcohol nose. High carbonation. Plum raisin in the flavour and dry finish. Not bad, but lacks depth.

Dark in color on the pour, fruity flavor with a hint of spices at the end on the palate. Good dubbel overall.

vadie (210) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - DEC 12, 2012
Un nez minimale. Il est très opaque avec une mousse brune qui a reste pour environs 10 min. Il a très peu carbonation. Le goût est bon mais le reste de l’experience n’est pas assez pour me faire dire que c’est une très bonne bière.

meerbier (1197) - Pijnacker, NETHERLANDS - OCT 15, 2012
Bottle@Home. Malty and light fruity aroma. Brown, beige head, good lace. Sweet, light bitter, malty, hint of sugar. Easy, not bad.
