| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 10, 2009 Crushed with Jakebra. Smooth and nice, but kind of unremarkable. All flavors are subdued, but it’s easy to drink. It’s just aight. Nordcore (271), North of, Norway
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 10, 2009 Bottle. Apperance; Dark almost black with a small head. Aroma; some fruits and coffee with a flavor that is smoke and some citrus. RHeastings (394), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 9, 2009 Enjoyed via draft. Pours a deep and dark brown, with a slight light-tan head. Nose of dark fruits and a touch of caramel. Surprisingly low-carbonated for a Belgian Dubbel, however this does bring out a little more of the malt sweetness. Finishes relatively dry on the palate, although a little more dryness my be an improvement. liinis (714), Helsinki, Finland
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 5, 2009 Not so basic belgian strong ale. dark brown almost clear with a big beige head. Chocolate-coffee in both aroma and flavor. Damn good. slightly bitter with good hops, but a bit watery mouthfeel. mike1977ok (637), Netherlands
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Mar 5, 2009 Deep red colour. Rich flavour with some maltiness coming through although it doesn’t give much sweetness. Hint of smokiness and warming sensation of alcohol come through in the aftertaste.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 4, 2009 Updated: Nov 10, 2009Very strong flavor, yet strangely attractive. Leaves many flavors left on the palate.
UPDATE 11/10/2009 Heavy rouge pour. Rich smell that includes dark malts, rich fruits and a small bit of holiday spice. A fair head may be worked up as churned. Dark raisin taste. Dark fruits dominate this flavor. Slight tingle over the tongue. Dry finish that doesn’t offend. Not bad. bleeng (595), Spring near Beersel, Texas, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Mar 2, 2009 Draft at the Londoner Addison TX. Black with a thick white head. Nose is sweet, sugary and a bit spicy. The flavor is tangy, tart, sweet and spicy. A bit watery on the end. Overall a decent beer but not world class. pfriesen (36), Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 1, 2009 Reddish-brown pour with foamy beige head, in Maredsous chalice, from 2008 Christmas gift pack. Aroma of vanillin and caramel. Flavour is molasses toffee and cola, high carbonation leaves it tasting thinner than it otherwise should be.
