4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20My 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.

Bought a bottle at the supermarket. Aroma of cloves and vanilla. Has a dark brown color a nice creamy head, and is highly carbonated. Taste of toffee and caramel and some spices. Taste is light sweet and has a bitterness in the aftertaste. Overall a very good Abbey Dubbel.

Pours a clear copper brown from the bottle with light lacy head and lacing. Aroma of Belgian yeast, dark fruits, dark toasted malts. Taste follows, more of the esters and less the malts. Pretty solid for what it is and the availability.

Flott balansert belgiske brun. Lite lukt men god på smak. Flott skum. Deilig mørkt øl som kan nytes på sommer som på vinteren.

I prefer this to the Blonde but enjoy both - albeit only occasionally. A reliable Belgian brew to contrast with my usual Anglo ales.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Nut brown colour. Aroma of brown sugar, plums. Soft brown sugar maltiness. Very light dusty yeastiness, plummy slightly cherryish esters and dark malt notes. Sugary finish. Simple character but effective in small doses.

1.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
Seems to score high but the flavour seems off. Bottle pours decent brown with a strong aroma. Not for me, but what I would expect from a Belgium brew.

33cl bottle from Systemet.
A firm and lasting head. Nectar for gods and humanoids. A multiplicity of flavours like a mixture of ale and mead.
