33ml bottle poured in to Trappist glass. Nice looking beer. Poured a dark brown with reddish tones and a half inch bubbly off white head that stayed for the duration. Nice lacing. Light bodied with a smooth front end and a pleasing bitter finish that lingers for some time. Taste is mild burnt sugars, malt, fruits, with some woodiness. Alcohol is hidden but noticeable. Aroma is consistent with the taste. I enjoyed this one and found it refreshing on this hot day in Regina.
4.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Pours a nice mahogany color with an off-white foamy head. Smell of yeast, sweet malt, and dried fruits. Flavor is more of the same, with a distinct taste of brown sugar and walnuts. Mouthfeel is smooth and rich for the style. Nice long, lingering finish. I can taste this for a while after I’m done! Excellent beer. Westmalle never disappoints.

Westmalle dubbel. Goblet poured at akkurat... Pours a mostly opaque
caramel mahogany pour with a fluffy cloudy white head... Aroma
consists of dark fruits (raisins and dates) with some brown sugar
malty aspects with some caramel thrown in for good measure... Flavors
are sweet, malty with a big emphasis in dark fruits and a brown sugary
balance. Smooth medium body, sweeter through the middle and tailend
while finishing on a slight bitter note. Complementing and quite nice
for the style.

I don’t really like abbey dubbel beers so the score is a bit low. I do like the colour of this beer.

UPDATED: JUL 29, 2011 I’m not a huge fan of the Dubbel-beers, but in his genre he’s a very good, well balanced beer. Great to drink with some home-made "stoofvlees"!
