Aug 1, 2007 Bottle. Rich toffee malt aroma with a touch of alcohol and dusty caramel and brown sugar. Sweet. Ruby pour with a beautiful creamy, lacy, rocky tanned head. Yes, pillowy head forms lots of really interesting shapes if left to sit. Bitter taste with flashes of fruity sweetness, dark and malty with a prominent alcohol component. Faint sourish wood notes. Slicky full body, dry cherry-ish aftertaste. Nothing earth-shattering here, just a crafted, flavorful ale. Well balanced and very pleasant!

Jul 30, 2007 superb..pours dark brown with medium beige head...aroma is massive in raison, prune, fig, and brown sugar (huge in sugar, mild in spice, and little yeast adding to the nose)..flavor is also dominated by such malts (brown sugar, raison, toast, and maple syrup)...hints of cherry just before the alcohol-touched finish...well done!

Jul 9, 2007 Deep dark, garnet/blood colored liquid. Somewhat fluffy light tan head. Deep rich malt aromas with sorghum, and dark fruits. Light herbal spice, with, licorice, anisette, bourbon oak and burnt marshmallows. Certainly more depth than your typical bock, oh wait this is a dubbel, somewhat typical of a heavy dubbel. Quite herbal in flavors, with light wintergreen, licorice, bay leaves and lime zest. Somewhat odd, but refreshingly different for a dubbel. Some candi also present. A touch dry at times, again, different for a dubble. I find that this is a slow quaff. I am only half way through the beer and feel I should be done. Ok, I am.
