3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 tdtm82 (666) - Essex, ENGLAND - DEC 13, 2009
Poured into a goblet glass from a 33cl exploding bottle. Murky brown reeking of brown sugar. Can tastel brown sugar; spices, dried fruit and caramel. Not a bad beer but not exceptional. Bought from Utobeer.

33 cl bottle. Pours murky brown, with a fast diminishing thin white head. Aroma of dark fruits, plums and brown sugar. Fizzy in the mouth, earthy dark taste, dark caramel, sweet overall, but a nice roasted feeling overall, nice
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 LordCorkscrew (1737) - Ronco Scrivia (GE), ITALY - NOV 5, 2009
Se la cava, forse non era il miglior abbinamento con cotechino e lenticchie ma d’altro canto non avevo moltissimo in casa e mi sembrava l’unica cosa adatta (e probabilmente non da buttare) di cui poter far fuori 75cl in famiglia; in effetti non era da buttare, è una dubbel piuttosto pulita, sul caffettoso andante, speravo più calorosa e con corpo più deciso, in realtà manca di spessore ma si beve bene.
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 harrisoni (9614) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - JUL 29, 2009
33cl bottle from Dranken Geers. Lasting ruby, very thin beige head. Dark fruit aroma. Bit musty in the mouth on the malts. Bit over carbonated, but this musty flavour goes on a bit. Bit syrupy on the malts. Not great to be honest. Some ok aroma, rest lets it down.

Dark red-brown colored, vanishing yellow head. Plummy, dried fruits aroma with chocolate and yeasty spiciness, fine aroma. Medium bodied. Flavor is similar with plums and raisins dominating in sweet start, some chocolaty and sour vinous note. Aftertaste dries with sourness and yeast. Complex and fine dubbel.

Bottle. [thank you, Harrisoni]
Pours a nice, redish brown with a giant, creamy, yellow-beige head. Aroma is sweet, lots of dried fruits, chocolate and toffee. A great creamy mouthfeel, pretty dry, actually. Wonderful flavours, great chocolate, lightly roasted and some good yeast. Fine cocoa dryness in the finish. Very nice beer.
