A deep red beer with a huge orange-brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of berries (strawberries, red currant et.al.), wood, and is quite sweet. The flavor is sweet with notes of berries (somewhat artificial), spices - some cinnamon, and a little wood. The mouthfeel is quite carbonated - with the bubbles bursting on the tongue. The alcohol really doesn’t kick in until after You swallow, then it leaves You with a warmth in the mouth combined with a dryness and notes of berries.

(Bottle 33 cl) Amber coloured with a small dense head. Very fresh, sweetish nose - a bit like fruit winegums... With an Abbey Dubbel you expect a sweet, malty, fullness that spreads in your mouth by the first sip - but not here. On the contrary this is slightly watery and rather light in body. The flavours take a little longer to appear, but then you do get some caramel- slightly burned malt. But still more dry than sweet. An unusual but very nice Dubbel. 280897
