3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Double Red Ale is an alias for Triple? Really?
Bomber pours a murky, muddy copper-brown with a nice but short-lived pale tan head. Aroma is spot-on, with loads of Crystal malt wafting up and bringing caramel sweetness along with a little toast and honey. Flavor is a kick in the tongue, with the caramelly malt base framing tastes of golden raisins, light-roast coffee, and brewer’s licorice. Alcohol content is a bit high and throws off the balance a little, but not unpleasant.

Bottle. bought from Alvinne brewery, consumed at home. Poured into goblet glass, excellent lacing, small white frothy head float, dark red appearance. Sweet toffee malt nose, some rye aroma as well, taste is very chewy, rye bread, toffee, complex malt, doughy yeast, very tough, dry long finish. Some nuts and an earthy texture too. Good craftmanship.

Had this one at the UDRBM, 31-07-2010. Hazy red colored brew. Aroma is hoppy, fruity. Flavor has got a good amount of hops. Fruity, some spices, malty. Creamy.

Loads of rich malt base, decent hopping for bitter and flavor, aroma missed out on the hops.

22oz. bomber: This one pours a crystal clear, red-tinged amber color. There was a very small off-white head on it that didn’t leave any lacing. The aroma is pretty good. Some piney hops and a ton of malts. Some fruity esters hanging around in there also. The taste is really good. A ton of malts, without too much sweetness. The hops give a slight dryness to the finish to a slightly sweet start. Some caramel, dark fruits, very well balanced. This drinks very easy.

Bottle @ meeting. Deep reddish brown, almost no head.
Aroma is sweet malt and fruit with a hoppy side note.
Flavour is bitter yet sweet, very sweet actually with fruits, yeast and hops.
Very full, sticky and nice.
3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bomber pours cloudy amber with thick tan head. Aroma is hoppy, pine, citrus, and spicy. Full bodied taste of caramel, pine, hops, very sweet. Alcohol evident has a chemical bug spray like after taste. Disappointing.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle at Dutch RB Meeting. Hazy red color with a thin off-white head. Aroma is sweet malty, fruity, with caramel, sugar and spices. Flavor is spicy caramel, dark fruits, coffee and licorice. Quite nice balance and a very decent brew. Creamy texture and above average carbonation.
