Commercial Description:
Bottle conditioned.
Brewed under direction of Hildegard van Ostaden, formerly at Van Steenberge, now at Koningshoeven - La Trappe brewery.
With its rich foam, hoppy flavour and fine bitterness, Urthel Vlaemse Bock is a special ale with a high drinkability for lovers of the authentic Flemish brewing art. Vlaemse Bock as originally brewed for the winter, but is now available in 33 cl. (330 ml./ 11.2 FL.OZ.), 75 cl. (750 ml./1 PT. 9.4 FL. OZ.) and kegs the whole year. You can only buy Urthel Vlaemse Bock in the United States. This heart-warming dubbel of 7.5% of alcohol, traditionally top fermented and bottle conditioned flamey dark ale has a tastefully rich, malty, slightly sweet flavour. Vlaemse Bock's very fine distinctive bitterness makes you forget the long cold winter.

11.2 OZ Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in Plano, TX. Pours a cloudy brown/orange with beige head that appears to be lacing the glass....Aroma has a nice yeasty character, kinda a mix between orange and caramel malt with slight roastiness..Flavor has fruit notes along with a sweet malt taste. Med. Carbonation with full body....I like this stuff!!!!!!!

Bomber. Poured a dark mahogany with a large coffee/cream head. Some wine characteristics in the nose, but mostly sweet malt. Flavor is surprisingly light for a dubbel, leaning on towards the fruity and sweet side. Really pleasing and easy to drink.

pours a hazy reddish orange brown color with a small light brown head that shrinks quickly. Nose is booze, red wine, a bit of soy sauce that is somewhat salty. Taste is cherries, booze, and is pretty acidic. Not bad but misses on quite a few levels.

Bottle at The Rake, Borough Market. Very deep red/brown with thick beige head. Belgian yeast aroma. Lots of candy sugar. Bit of choc, bit of unsubtle unintegrated flavours. I should have had something else.

pours a murky brownish red, with a huge tan head i just finally got past the head and got to taste it. the aroma smells of sweet caramel and kinda fruity. This is a pretty good dubbel, it has a nice balance and very drinkable.
