330ml brown bottle. 7.7% abv on label, best before date is notched as March ’12. Pours out deep amber/lightish brown shade, hazy, some larger floating sediment. Small head, off white in colour, doesn’t hold much lacing and thins out soon after pouring. Definately has a dubbel nose, sweet elements include raisin, caramel, light chocolate, some yeast notes as well. Taste has a nice sweet caramel and chocolate profile, deeper notes of raisin fruitiness, some toasted malt. Dry end with yeast, distant hops and mineral notes. Soft bodied, good smooth mouthfeel, nice easy carbonation, pretty easy to drink.

38cl, new organic brew Anno 2011, from De Hopduvel Gent, not complex brew, malty/spicy and slightly sweet, balanced, hazy, small head, nice brew

From bottle, sunday 03.07.2011 @ Mechelen BB summer beerfest. More amber than brown color, with beige head. Aroma sweet, special malts. Medium body. Taste yeast, special malts, spices. Not bad.

Inconspicuous yellowish head over amberish, muddy beer. Bit of cookie malts, faintly coloured malts, touch of milkchocolate, and pineapple ester. Spiced, coloured malts, parsley and quite some yeasty esters. Falls a bit dead. Medium bodied. OK, well, it’s organic. I hope that doesn’t explain it.
