If you see the Trappist Brothers from the Abbey of Koningshoeven, send them my regards. This Dubbel rocks!

I dont know what to say...I dont think I am supposed to rate this beer this high, but after drinking it, I could not help but make it my number one beer. It had a pleasant spice aroma with lace that clung to the glass as I drank each sip. The sweet fruits hung around my toungue and made me crave another sip. I found nothing wrong with this beer, I want another!

I tried this beer on May 9, 2008 at "Smokeless Joe’s" in Toronto, Ontario on tap. The beer was a beautiful dark brown with some plum coloured hints and a thin, rocky, tan coloured head. The aroma was sweet malt, with some yeasty tones, as well as chocolate and cherry hints. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, mildly carbonated, and slightly creamy. The flavour was caramel malt, some other fruit flavours like cherries and plum, and a little hoppish bitterness to round it out. I loved this beer.

Very active aroma with a charcoal traces. Good lasting head and a really nice color. The taste is present for quite a while and is bitter, sour and a little salty. Has a oily texture and a lively carbonation. You can feel a metallic taste in your mouth.

Unique tasting Trappist, the only of it’s kind of Dutch origin. The smoothest and sweetest of all Trappists, yet still packing enough character and dubbel ’oomph’. My favourite, most of the time... Change with a regular pils or a Westmalle Dubbel in between to keep your palate appreciating it’s sweet strength ;)

Had this beer on tap while traveling through Amsterdam. It’s less champagne-like on tap than out of the bottle. Fruity, like many trappist style beers, but not sweet. Excellent!

A gorgeous looking ale! Dark red and almost tea-like aroma, with hints of butter cookies. A plum-y sweetness to the body and an almost alcohol dryness in the finish. This was an incredible beer!

The sweet, almost sugary-like feeling of the dubbel was much respected. I noticed the elevated sense of self-esteem after three of these, along with the immense flavor that accompanied it. I wish that I could only describe it better. I am a growing fan of Belgians!
