Draft at ginger man/hattan. Poured a reddish color w/medium head. Somewhat creamy hoppy taste with some mild fruits. Pretty decent.

DerWeg (1251) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - MAY 16, 2009
A quasi "hoppy tripel" but weaker with nice lacing - well made and simple but individualistic. nothing like any beer the words "Abbey 8" would evoke. Tap at Ginger Man, boy Sammy we must have crossed paths here at some point this week!!

Sammy (5888) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - MAY 15, 2009
On tap at The Ginger Man. A Belgian strong with an amber brown body. Average Belgian, decent beer. Not extraordinary. A bit of yeast aroma, a bit above average mouthfeel. OK drinkability.

smashteroid (262) - USA - MAY 2, 2009
Served on tap at Ginger Man NYC. Pours a golden amber body with an modest off-white head. Aroma of fruits, malts and yeast. Sweet flavor, hints of malt, caramel and spices. Full-bodied and smooth. An enjoyable session beer, but not for those who enjoy "extreme" beers.

hopdog (6943) - Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 7, 2009
On tap at the Craft Ale House. Poured a deeper golden/amberish color with a smaller sized off whtie head. Aromas of fruitness, bready, and some spiciness. Tastes of the same fruitiness, bready, lighter spices, and some candi sugar sweetness. Lively body.

Nejhleader (1003) - Lemoyne, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 1, 2009
kind of a disappointment. Didn’t have much of anything to it, a bit of a sugary candy taste, decent body, but their abbey 6 is better.

Rciesla (5500) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - MAR 25, 2009
Draft at Barcade. Pours a golden orange body with an off white head. Floral sweet with hints of apples and caramel. Chewy moderately sharp co2, light bubble gum and banana’s. Good brew.

Dickinsonbeer (5077) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - MAR 24, 2009
Pours a mostly clear deep copper (not amber at all - doesn’t look like a dubbel) and a thin lasting head. Aroma is on the fruity side with a nice pungent sharp toasty malts, bready and syrupy sweet with a good Belgian character- phenolic and tropical fruity esters. Flavor is candi sugar sweet, nutty, light caramel, some toast, phenolic, grassy, and tropical mango hints. Fairly smooth with a nice sharp finish. Good stuff, but doesn’t even remind me of a Belgian dubbel.
