Nov 1, 2006 Bought @ Steilacoom Wine and Brew. On tap, this beer pours more like a micro beer than a Belgian ale, with not much head that dissipates quickly. The aromas fall away with the head and I am left with a little maltiness, and maybe some licorice. On the tongue this beer shines, smooth, malty with just the right amount of carbonation... and somewhere in the background this beer has a little sour that hints, but never takes over the flavor. All in all a drinkable, but not outstanding brown with nice yeasty overtones but lacking in body and umph.

Oct 15, 2006 Draft@ Oakmont National, Havertown PA. Deep brown color. Musty Aroma. Flavor is pretty funky and reminded me of fruitcake. Very interesting.

Oct 7, 2006 Absolutely amazing Belgian brew! On tap from the Green Leafe in Williamsburg, VA. Poured with near black color with slight red hue... thick off-white head that lingers throughout the trappist. Great fruit notes of plum and perhaps cherry that tingles the whole palate. Very smooth finish. Superb Belgian!

Oct 7, 2006 On tap. Dark brown, off white head. Aroma is molasses, malt, and musty. Flavor is malt, molasses, caramel, and well balance, but not as complex as I expected. Still good.

Oct 6, 2006 25 oz bottle, Stateline Liquors. Pours a clear medium brown colored body under a thinnish large bubbled foamy light brown head. Some nice lacing remained. Aroma is quite malty with a hefty dose of belgian yeast. Lots of dark fruits with some toffee and nuttiness. Flavor is very fruity but not especially sweet, more of a nutty malt aspect. The yeast along with some alcohol rounds out the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a moderate fizzy level of carbonation. Texture is slightly syrupy but gets creamier on the finish. Overall, a real nice Dubbel, but it needed a little more malt and more complexity in the flavor.

Oct 2, 2006 Pours reddish with a tan head. Smells perfumy with a nice wild floral tinge. Tastes of mild sugar, some tangy hops and cherries as well as a slight peppery finish.

Sep 30, 2006 Bottle. Bronze-coloured, rich offwhite lacing head. Yeasty and fruity aromas. Sweet, fruity and spicy flavours, good yeastiness midway, but rather short finish. Good carbonation. Quite complex fruitiness, a little on the sweet and spicy side.
