My first experience with an abbey dubbel wasn’t very good. This was my first one since a long time. 2 bottles and one glass from the tap. Amazing beer. Nice flavor and beautiful dark brown colour. The alcohol is hidden very well, that’s very positive.

bottle: What a great beer. Both the blonde & the brune remind me of the holdiays & are great winter beers. Pours dark brown colour with frothy, puffy white head. The label says roasted malts give a sweet caramel taste but also bitter - that about says it. Very sweet, malty, fruity beer that just about overwhelms the palate but not quite. This is a stronger ale: I think I prefer the blonde (crisper) while this one’s alcohol taste is a little too strong at times. Still, we are talking quality and excellent example of style.

Bottle. Dark brown colour with a nice average lasting light-brown head. Sweet, malty and hoppy aroma. Flavour of toasty malts, caramel, some spices, hops. Sweetish and bitter finish.

Bottle. Light body for a bruin. Dark brown with light lacing. Wine and raisin aroma. A slight sourness. Yeast gas in the end.

Its definitely better than the blonde though harder to find in the bars. A solid dark beer.
