Sep 28, 2009 Sampled at the ’Butter’s Last Supper’ tasting Bomber thanks to John Gardner! Best by july 2009. Pours an identical mahogany as the regular. Nose is similar to the regular, except that the original has more of a fruity cherry note, and the gran cru has banana quality. Although, the regular has more banana in the flavor. Very good and enjoyable.

Sep 19, 2009 Was fortunate enough to have this guy at Uber in Seattle sometime last year when they randomly got a keg of it! Not even sure if this is brewed anymore, though hopefully it exists somewhere. Up there with the La Folie, this is by far a superior NB brew. I remember it poured a goldish brown, nice tanned head. Aroma of sugar plums and malts, light spice. The flavor was bursting with the aroma notes, with more raisins, plums, light chocolate hints, and a touch of spice towards the finish. Velvety smooth on the mouth feel. Basically, all a great Abbey Dubbel/Grand Cru should be. Fantastic! Hope to have it again at some point!

Aug 10, 2009 On tap at Brouwer’s Tour de Fat afterparty. Pours mostly clear copper/brown with a nice tan head. Ashy caramel and banana aroma and taste. Thick and sticky with a charred malty finish.

Jun 23, 2009 Tap at Toronado. Deep ruby brown, poured with basically no head. Big sweet aroma, cherries, dark fruit, banana bread, and wisps of nuttiness. Flavor really sweet, dark fruits, black cherries, spices/nuts for a slight banana bread flavor, also something vaguely cough syrupy behind all the sweetness. Could have used more balance to the sweetness for my taste.
