COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This brown ale has a marked ruby brown colour with a generous and lasting head. It has a distinctive aroma reflecting the wide range of ingredients used in its production. The fruitiness resulting from its fermentation blends harmoniously with a dominant liquorice and caramel flavour. The body is decidedly malty. The bitterness is the result of a complex alchemy between the fine hops and special malts used. These give St Feuillien Brune a typical dark chocolate appearance.

badgerben (4092) - Blaine, Minnesota, USA - SEP 4, 2007
Brown color with a large head. A little orange aroma. Strong, malty flavor with ample sugar. A bit of bitterness towards the end to spare it from being cloying. Nice.

A nice, classic dubbel. Dark brown with sediment and a nice cream colored head. Lots of sweet malt, brown sugar, and yeast. Some fruit. Very good palate.

Ethereal (2355) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - AUG 27, 2007
On tap at Belgo Camden, 12th August 2007. Looks great in the glass - dark reddish amber with a small foamy head which leaves good lacing. Nice aroma of spices, orange peel, burnt sugar and biscuity malt. The malt dominates the flavour I feel, which is a pity. The palate is smooth and full. Like the blonde, good stuff, but not a world beater.

Rune (4671) - Tromsø, NORWAY - AUG 24, 2007
330ml bottle. Pours an attractive deep red-brown body settled under a creamy, off-white head. Gives a fragrance of late berries and riped fruit. The taste has got a sweet malty character with the support of caramel and biscuit added by a spicy touch (pepper) and notes of plums. It is all offset by soft yeasty tartness at a rather dry ending (06.08.2007).

malrubius (1308) - Valley Stream, New York, USA - AUG 21, 2007
11.2 ounce bottle in Duvel glass. Pours hazy dark reddish brown with lasting brownish amber head and some lace. Faint aroma of malt and yeast earth with slight alcohol. Flavors of caramel, and fruity, raisiny tobacco, with clean finish. Medium body, medium carbonation. Refreshing and tasty, if not very distinctive.
