Jeppe (2635), Ølbutikken, Denmark Oct 30, 2004 Pours a foamy light tan head on a hazy dark amber body. Rather heavy sweet malty, fruity and caramelly aroma with tones of prunes. Some alcohol. Flavor is full nutty and chocolaty. Good fruity tone also. Thick, sweet and tasty.
bierkoning (4716), La Tropica, Netherlands Apr 20, 2005 Bottle, brewed for the Open Day 13 june 2004, gift from the brewer. Named Schans Dubbel. The ABV is the same, so I guess it’s this beer. Very dark brown color, small but persisting creamy head. Chocolate and Mon Chéri cherry bonbon aroma and flavor. Roasted malt. Alcohol. Thinnish probably because of the everpresent alcohol. Chocolate and alcohol aftertaste, almost like Tia Maria. A taste bomb!! kook (2035), Perth, Western Australia, Australia Nov 25, 2004 Chocolate syrup aroma, soy sauce too (as said by duff). Chocolate dominates flavour, sweet though balanced. Full smooth feel. Nice. duff (5404), Sydney, Australia, Surrey, England Oct 25, 2004 Bottle. Quite yeasty and soy saucy. Chocolate syrup, some caramel, yeasty. Quite sticky. Some bitterness in the finish makes the sweet/sticky characters easier to bare. Joeh (1892), Buckinghamshire, England Oct 22, 2004 Bottle at Beer Circus, Croydon</>. Another seldom seen beer from this well stocked Croydon bar. Very chocolty, sweet, coffee. It almost tasted a little stale but overall was good.
