On draft at KClingers: Another amazing pull at KClingers, a beer I haven’t seen anywhere else in the US. It’s much darker than I remembered or expected. Drinks smooth and slightly roasty. The aroma is somewhat pruney, as is the flavor, but ulimately this is a damn good dark, sweet beer. (#2716, 2/17/2007)

Bottled. Darkish brown, pale white head. Sweet, fruity aroma. Sweet tasting, perhaps a hint of chocolate. Typical Leffe yeast flavour, a little warming. Not bad, not great.

Had a few glasses from tap at Vol de Nuit on 4th St in the West Village recently. Nice dark pour with a decent light brown head. Very sweet and malty, with fruit notes. Relatively thick on the palette. The entire group was switching over to it, so it seems to be a crowd pleaser.

Bottle: Nice beer. Dark brown with medium brownish head. Aroma of malts and very sweet. Taste dominated by malt and again very sweet.

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.

Good over all Belgium beer. Nice dark brown color. Well balanced. Good in the cooler months
