Oct 22, 2008 (Bottle, 0.33 l, at Kaisla, Helsinki, on 2008-10-17) Dark brown. Almost clear. Medium sized white quite quickly disappearing head. Malty and a bit sour nose. Full bodied palate with lot of carbonation. Malts, chocolate, bitterness and some sourness in taste. A bit sour and bitter aftertaste. I wonder whether this bottle was contaminated somhow because there was this clear sour flavour.

Oct 16, 2008 Sample from Durham WBF. Clear brown pour with a light tan head. Sweet malty, but also notes of dirt and cardboard (oxidation?). Spice and metal. I’m making this sound worse than it was. It was decent, but I think something was wrong with the one I tried.

Brouwser (119), gatineau, Quebec, Canada
Sep 20, 2008 Bière brun chocolat, avec un très léger voile. Donne une mousse café généreuse au service, mais elle se dissipe rapidement.
Parfum de malte un peu suret et métallique.
Goût sucré, avec de bonne note d’orge grillé. Finale caramélisée et amère.
Bouche pétillante, vivante.
Cette bière se boit très bien, tout en présentant du caractère.

Sep 13, 2008 Á primeira vista, essa Abbey Dubbel holandesa parece impecável, uma experiência única que começa com a remoção da rolha de sua belíssima garrafa. Sim, a magnificum é uma boa cerveja, mas está longe do seu equivalente em latim.
Afinal, esse visual já se perde um pouco ao observa-la no copo, quando se vislumbra uma espuma pequena e amarronzada, quase nenhuma formação de colarinho e rápido desaparecimento. Completam sua aparência a coloração marrom e o corpo claro, talvez até demais para uma cerveja de tão nobre família.
Na próxima análise, o principal trunfo dessa Dubbel, seu aroma. São necessárias várias incursões e inspirações para captar toda uma nuance de notas que passa por chocolate meio amargo, café suave, bala toffee e caramelo. Justamente essa miscelânea é que ‘joga contra o patrimônio’ nesse caso, pois acaba-se esperando sabor e paladar surpreendentes, mas o que vem a seguir não é nada de mais.
No início do gole, doçura moderada. No final, amargor moderado e algo adocicado. No palato, um corpo leve para médio, com textura oleosa, carbonatação borbulhante e sensação metálica finalizando.
