COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
When starting an uprising, two is always better than one. Or so I’ve been told. And after you try Dubbel Fisted, you’ll find out the reason for its namesake. While peering into a glass of the deep amber colored brew you’re holding in your drinking hand, you’ll realize that you probably want one in your open hand too. Rich chocolate, caramel, and plum notes are almost too tempting for words.

SlovakSniper (2111) - Candiac, Quebec, CANADA - APR 2, 2013
Une bouteille de 75 cl. Une robe brunâtre. Un anneau de mousse. Quelques traces collées sur la paroi de mon verre. Des arômes fruités. Des figues et des raisins. Du sucre brun et des dattes. Du pain brun sucré. Sur les papilles, des notes maltées terreuses et chocolatées. Du caramel foncé et des fruits qui s’embrouillent sur ma langue. Un alcool introuvable. Une bouche correctement exécutée. Des bulles au comportement modéré et une texture crémeuse. Une finale qui ne laisse qu’un goût de dattes et de prunes mûries au soleil. Cette bière n’est pas trop intéressante et elle n’est pas non plus une catastrophe.

rodenbach99 (2508) - Longueuil, Quebec, CANADA - APR 1, 2013
Bouteille de 750ml avec capsule de métal. Bière brune qui ne mousse pas vraiment. Le nez est simple avec des notes de chocolat, du café et des noisettes. C’est exubérant. La bouche est tout autant chocolatée avec des fruits secs. Ordinaire.

NikkTwist (881) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 12, 2013
Draft at Khyber Pass. Hazy ruby pour with a decent off-white head. Medium red fruit. Plums. Blood oranges. Some unexpected stout notes. Chocolate pudding. Nutella. Molasses. Cloves. Cinnamon. Cardamom. Medium body. Gently sweet but finishes dry. Modestly high ABV is well hidden. Nice, but does not feel like a proper Belgium Dubbel.

Cavie (3382) - Fort Worth, Texas, USA - DEC 29, 2012
Bottle courtesy bu11zeye. Beer pours a slightly cloudy reddish orange color. Foamy white head. Aroma is a mix of sweet sugar, kiwi fruit and banana. Flavor is sunflower seeds, dry grains, bread with a bitter finish. Finishes grainy again.

jonno (2001) - JAPAN - DEC 12, 2012
A dubbel stout? Lots of chocolate, some dark dried fruit notes, a hint of vanilla and a nice rounded body. A bit of aniseed as well, though thankful low key. Some estery notes, but again soft. Unique, flavoursome and highly enjoyable. Packs a lot in at 8%.

SHIG (3045) - Anchorage, Alaska, USA - NOV 11, 2012
Bottle: Poured a mahogany colored burnt orange with a fluffy off white to tan head. Aroma is dark fruit of plum, sweet caramel malt, and light chocolate. Taste is a dry dark fruit and chocolate, lively caramel malt that leaves just enough sweetness.

SDalkoholic (1768) - Chula Vista, California, USA - AUG 25, 2012
Bottle from South Bay Drugs: Poured a gentle topping of creamy head while the liquid was a dark mahogany hue. As for the nose, there is a bold presence of authentic Belgian yeast and spices, but there is a sweet base of malts holding everything in balance. The flavor is smooth and well rounded with a lightly toasted sweetened malt and a moderate dash of spices that stay close to Belgian abbey dubbel recipes, and there is a noticeable dosage of alcohol that gets the job of catching a quick buzz fast done quickly.

Ober (2763) - Bommelerwaard, NETHERLANDS - AUG 14, 2012
A clear amber colored beer, with a light beige head. The aroma of fruits, some caramelmalt and some hops. The taste of fruits like apple and orange. notes of hop. The aftertaste is sweet with a little bitter.
