| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Jul 13, 2007 Updated: Jan 1, 2008On tap at the Sharp Edge Bistro. Beautiful rolling pour. Brown like root beer. No carbonation visible within. Stronger alky aroma with some sweetness. I also detect a little soap on the olfactory. Head is off white but fades quite rapidly to leave a froth. Taste is initially sweetish and creamy, you can feel the alky content on the palate. Alky impact builds during the session. Beautiful lacing. Flavor comes across a little strong for a refined dubbel. Barely any carbonation onthe palate. Finish is a little malty bitter but it fades quickly and is gone after a few moments. Leaves a warm feeling down your throat and in yer belly. Overall, a decent brew, but expensive for what you get. puzzl (2599), New York, New York, USA

Yeasty aroma, mild raisins, spice. Very drinkable for the style and for 8%. Taste, plummy, kind of like a yeast-forward dubbel. Enjoyable. Has a great sweet note that is reminiscent of Pannepot, while retaining a nice, light body. Jerre (1755), Waregem, Belgium

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 25, 2007 330ml bottle. This is an absolutely beautiful looking beer in all respects. The dense pocketed head lasts the entire beer, and has a nice even beige colour. The beer itself is a nice golden maple syrup brown. Aroma is quite nice, with some sweeter notes including molasses, maple syrup, hints of cinnamon and plum. The taste is unfortunately lacking, with little or no depth, excessive sweetness, and a slightly acidic watery finish. Overall this is still a good beer, and well worth a try. loslava (9), Hope Mills, North Carolina, USA does not count | 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jun 23, 2007 Red-Brown color with large light brown head. Suble fruity aroma with slight bitter taste.
