New Belgium Abbey

Dark bubbly amber color with a beige head. Aroma and flavor of yeast, peppery spices, fruit and some hops. Wow!

deep amber with a full lasting head. spicy clovey malty yeast aroma--thick finish with lots of malt. very authentically belgian (at least compared to the belgians i have had here in the US). one of the more drinkable belgian style beers. thanks secret santa!

Thanks to BBB63 for this one. Pours turbid ruby with aroma of malt, fruit, spices, and brown sugar. Tastes malty, fruity, with some merlot and spice at the finish. Firm, fairly dense palate, with more fruit as ti warmed. Excellent.

Large, fluffy, slightly longer than avg. head. Clear brown body. Fruity aromas, pleasing flavor with notable malty finish. Somewhat creamy mouthfeel.

bottle. yeasty, fruity, and bubble gum aroma. colour is a brownish orange colour with a medium-size fluffy head. flavour is fruity, spicey, malty, etc..complex. a very nice dubbel. This is what New Belgium should stick to rather than the mediocre pilsner and wit that I had last week.

The Abbey from New Belgium is much better at achieving the Belgian style than their Fat Tire. Very nice fruity aroma and flavor derived from the Belgian yeast strains. Nice body, good balance of malt and hops, and bit of spice.

Dark mahogany body with a fluffy white head. Smells like a package of sweet-tarts. Flavor is slightly sweet, with light fruits and a mild dry finish. Nothing special, or even too interesting for that matter, about this at all.

Nice dark brown with a bit of head and lacing. Aroma is typical of a Belgian, with a sharp bite to the aftertaste. Many fruit undertones.
