saxo (3511), Højbjerg, Aarhus, Denmark Apr 9, 2006 Draught. Nice creamy light tan head. Color is dark brown to pitch black. Aroma is spice and malt. Taste is caramel spice and roast malt. onystrom (741), Århus-Randers Crew, Denmark Mar 28, 2006 Beautiful dark brown color with fine head. Too much carbonation. Slightly burnt taste with caramel and a little bitterness. JohnBarleycorn (390), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Mar 26, 2006 Coffee-coloured black. Aromas are pretty reserved, offering vague hints of
black raspberry, malt and alcohol. The flavour is also pretty laid-back, much more reserved than expected, with a bit of chocolate and a bitter coffee finish. Palate feels nice and rich. I expected more but don’t mind this just the way it is.
Barrabass (31), Karlstad, Sweden Mar 25, 2006 Very dark red colour. thick, beige, lacy and slowly diminishing head. nose of dark fruits and a spicy touch with some citrus. roasty, hopsy taste and dark fruits, hint of PVC Krasulak (63), Wapadrand, Pretoria, South Africa Mar 23, 2006 Bottle 33 cl. Brown hazy with a good off white head. Aroma of brown sugar malt and yeast. Medium sweet, toasted malt and fruityness (plum). Light bodied with light carbonation. Somewhat creamy palate. Finishes sweetly with a touch of bitterness. Not particularly complex but quite good Abbey Dubbel. Fish (439), Kure, Japan Mar 20, 2006 Had this on tap at a lovely Irish Pub in Montreal called "Claddagh" (or something like that). It was verry tastey. Lots of character, but very drinkable for a Belgian Abbey Ale. dj (418), Gloucestershire, England Mar 18, 2006 Updated: Aug 14, 2006Bottle, 750ml. A clear dark brown colour with an average lasting head. A room-filling aroma of malt, berries and honey. Perhaps a touch of disinfectant there too... Taste has strong roasted malts, dark chocolate and honey. A somewhat sweet, fairly bitter roasted malt finish. Moderate carbonation. This is a great brew. robklg (6), Enschede, Netherlands does not count Mar 17, 2006 Beautiful dark brown body. Creamy light white/brown head that sticks to the glass. Tastes like dark fruit and a bit woody. Long lasting sweet bitter aftertaste.
