Poured into a shaker glass on tap at the House of Brews in Turnersville, NJ.

T: Lots of fruit and some tart to it with lots of sweetness throughout, sugar I mostly picked up.
M: Full-bodied and lightly carbonated.
O: Very flavorful and easy to drink despite the slightly high alcohol content.
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Rich, burgundy-wine aroma, the alcohol definitely there. Raspberry-red color (a little like a nice scotch) and medium-low head. Strong honey sweetness on the nose, alcohol rather smooth & muted. Burnt caramel, a bit of raspberry fruitiness, richness lingers on the tongue. Opens up a lot more with warming. Definitely a solid dubbel!

Pretty sure this was an old bottle. Appearance was basically headless with a very deep burgundy. Aroma was very sweet like wine. Taste was tart and sweet similar to a red wine and plenty of alcohol. Overall not really my style even considering the potential age.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Refrigerated 750 mL bottle poured into a trappist glass. Pours clear crimson with three finger fluffy beige head. Very little lacing, light body, smooth texture, highly carbonated, and very little aroma. Taste is fruit (mostly plum, some apple, and a hint of fig) and honey. Easier to drink than many dubbels.

On tap at The Gingerman Plano. Pours a deep red with a large tan head, the aromas are dates, raisins, plums. The mouthfeel is dry, sweet, has a lively carbonation and a medium to heavy body. Nice beer. Cheers!
