Mortlach (713) - Rome, ITALY - NOV 24, 2012
22/11/2012 Brasserie 4:20 (tap). Bevuta al Thanksgiving Day, Bruna, molto bella, gran cappello di schiuma molto persistente. Al naso sentori etti di esteri (banana), che quasi coprono tutto il resto. Note di malto, tostato e cioccolato, ciliegie e alcol. In bocca è dolce ma non troppo, migliore rispetto alle attese ma non eccezionale. Corpo medio, carbonazione corretta. Discreta.

jesperhammer (2203) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - OCT 15, 2012
12-OCT-2012, draft @Mikkeller, Mortens fødselsdag. Clear brown with low tan head. Aroma is caramel, yeast and dark fruits. Taste is sweet malts, berries, caramel, chocolate, and a liqour-like cherry tartness. Surprised by the tartness - a fault? Quite tasty though.

phredrik (986) - Copenhagen (formerly Aalborg), DENMARK - OCT 12, 2012
Tap @ Mikkeller. Dark brown pour with a nice chestnut tone with a egg shell white head. Aroma is heavy on the raisins and yeast esters. Has a nice blackcurrant note to the esters. Some caramel maltiness, too, but over all pretty estery, as a dubbel should be. Taste is more light than the aroma suggests - there is a light tartness to it that hides very well behind the raisinous and estery sweetness. This is quite above any other dubbel I’ve had. Very nice! I could imagine that a sour cherry and brettanomyces version of this aged in an oak barrel would be through the roof.

fra fat på Mikkeller Ølbar: min første øl fra Pizza Port. Et hederlig forsøk på en belgisk dubbel, men ikke helt overbevist. De har ikke spart på rosinpakka. God, men belgierne gjør dette best.
