Jun 4, 2008 Bottle (12oz). Shared by blankboy with garthicus. Clear ruby-amber with a small wispy beige head. Aroma of banana, cloves, sweet caramel malt, sweet yeast and a hint of spoiled milk. Taste follows, softer, no milk, with peach and apple, slightly dry spice - really smooth. Average lightly syrupy body, spicy and a hint of alcohol in the finish. Really dig the taste.

May 31, 2008 Pours a very dark clear amber with a small beige froth on top. Sweet caramel apple, raisin and grape aroma, tootsie roll, belgian yeast. Very straight forward flavor, almost like a doppelbock. Rich dark malt flavor, some grape and raisins. Sweet caramel apple finish with a touch of yeast. Medium body, watery, light carbonation, slightly syrupy.

May 23, 2008 12 oz bottle from lb4lb, thanks Deniz. Pours a deep mahogany, so what if I took that description from the label it’s pretty acurate, with an average size foamy light beige head. Aroma of toffee, raisin, bread and plums. Medium bodied with average carbonation and a creamy finish. Flavor is actually a step down from the aroma with lots of yeast, grainy malts and only slight fruitiness present. An average beer for an average beer drinker.

May 21, 2008 Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. Nice aroma of cloves, fruit, and the usual yeast smell. Actually had some nice flavor to it as well. A little bit of a bitter aftertaste. Nice banana flavor. I liked it more than I thought I would.

May 21, 2008 I was actually sort of disappointed with this upon first inspection. Aroma wasn’t quite as hefty as I expected, though there was a nice hint of vanilla in there. First taste is sharp but a smooth vanilla caramel round body with a slight hint of oakiness going into a slight alcohol warming.

May 16, 2008 One of my first dubels. Odor just as everyone else here describes. I started off with it a bit to cold and had to let it warm. Flavors really started to pop!

May 16, 2008 Pours a clear, brownish amber color with an off-white head. Awesome aroma, bananas, cloves, yeasts... it’s all there. Malty body, yeasty, bread, maybe a hint of dark fruit. Not a bad attempt at a dubbel.
