| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 18, 2008 Bottle. Pours a beautiful dark brown, with a brown tinted frothy head. Aroma is sweet caramel and just a little yeast, not as much fruit as other dubbels. Well carbonated and a creamy mouthfeel and smooth malt,slightly sweet and alcoholic. A pleasant slightly dry and hopped short finish. Joakgust (340), Stockholm, Sweden
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 17, 2008 33 cl bottle - Hazy brown beer with a great head. Fruity aroma without as much dried fruits as most dubbels have. Instead a more pleasant mix of yeast and bananas. Flavorwise this beer feels more refined than the tripel. Smooth maltiness and banana esters mixed nicely with a dryish hoppy finish.
This is probably what the monks at westmalle prefer over the tripel. note666 (289), Eindhoven, Netherlands

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 11, 2008 Thick creamy tan head. Deep burgundy in appearance. Slightly fruity aroma- not overwhelming - in fact, it seemed rather faint. Smooth texture, low carbonation. Somewhat sweet and fruity but not overly so. A nice balance of fruit, bitterness and sweetnesss all in one. Very nice offering. ogreface (337), Budapest, Hungary
