Bottle. The aroma is malty, light sweet, some chocolate. The head is large, creamy and light beige. The body is dark brown. It tasted malty, light sweet but not that strong. Later on it gets very dry in the mouth. The body is light to medium, medium creamy and lively with a lot of carbonation. A nice but rather soft beer.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with a creamy tan head, good lacing and lots of chunks. Aroma has notes of roasted malt, caramel, coffee and dates. Flavour mirrors the aroma, with a little bit of added sweetness. Medium body with a surprising amount of tingly carbonation. A very nice dubbel.

Dark brown colour with a medium white head. Light aroma of roastedness and caramel. Taste is also roasted malts with and fruity. Spicy finish.

On tap somewhere in Paris. Some bitterness, nice taste, fullbodied. Nice one.

Black with red tint body with a big tan head. Smells of lemon and orange peel with notes of raisin and plum. Taste of raisin and roasted malt. Some lacing. Nice balanced bitter finish. Very fulfilling beer.

33cl bottle poured into a Rochefort Trappist glass. Dark brown with ample tan head. Aroma is toasty malt. Flavor sweet and toasty. High carbonation. Moderately bitter finish. Nice brew.

33cl Bottle. Very dark brown with red sparks. Huge foamy light brown head. Roasted malt and coffee aromas. Sweet malty taste with lots of roasted flavors as well. The only let down is the surprisingly light body. Otherwise it would be excellent.

More noir than brune but pours a dark sligtly frothy brew. Sweet and plummy with astringency in the end. Seems more alcoholic than it is.
