Bottle. Pours a clear, dark brown with an off-white head. Aroma is sweet with malt and dark fruits. Flavour is malty and fruity; plums. Same finish. Too much carbonation. 26-09-09.

330 ml bottle - pours clear, dark brown with thin off-white head; aromas of figs, sugar, dank fruit, yeast and bread; candy malt, thick, dry and fruity; strong, but smooth and tasty; super rich and malty, great stuff

My wife is away so I’m numbing the pain with delicious beverage treats. This is my Chimay Red upgrade. It’s dark and cloudy with a good head that fades fairly quickly. I was pretty impressed with the appearance...lots of cool floaties. The aroma is of dark fruits and roasty. Sweet on the tongue and pretty dry. A full-bodied dubbel. I’m a fan. But, then again, I like dubbel’s.

Bottle 33. Dark amber beer quite cloudy with a small head. Smells of caramel and malt, bitterness at the finish. Hops part is very less. Yeast brings fruit smells like cassis or apple. The feeling is vey less alcoolic, nice belgian beer.

Dark hazy copper/brown with huge rocky head. Candy sweet aroma. Fluffy carbonation and full maouthfeel. Sweet on the tongue to start, light roast and caramel, develops into citrussy hop bite, surprisingly dry finish, even though some caramel lingers, along with prickly pepper on top of tongue. Interesting spice notes from yeast and alcohol. Good, but more simple than I expected.
