3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 BrianO (138) - Ambler, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 18, 2003
Poured and got little head. Nice dark red color. Tastes very sweet, more like a wine. Has minor the complexity of the dubbel style. Not bad but I'd pass next time round.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 TAR (2346) - Lafayette, Colorado, USA - FEB 4, 2003
Aged one year: Pours with very little carbonation. Clear crimson liquid. Unorthodox Belgian aroma of shiny leather, estery malts, uncooked mushroom, caramel, lemon, goat cheese, vanilla, and a dash of black cherry. Begins with sour, medicinal flavors, reminscent of spoiled plums,goat cheese, and some wet wood. Very simplistic. Its only prayer is the long nutty malt backdrop. Either aging has badly affected this, or it is a run of the mill Dubbel. I was expecting great things from this.

Very good job by my neighbors to the south of me. does not taste like any other dubbel i have had. tastes more like a good red wine.

I prefer this to their trippel, it is much more deep in malt character and balanced with just the right amount of hop bitterness

UPDATED: MAR 22, 2003 This beer rocks. Weyerbacher Brewing Co. is the best thing that ever happened to Easton... with the possible exception of Sheena.

4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 VENOM (941) - Connecticut, USA - APR 24, 2002
Cloudy dark amber/ruby with a thin off white edge head. Very light carbonation. Oak and grape aroma with notes of caramel and light sourness. Initially woody and lightly sour with a light body and grape/wine aspect. If you’re expecting a dark Belgian Dubbel forget it, but this is a superb surprise. Body turns airy and lightly tart and oaky sour. Earthy though and not Lambic sour. Black cherry skin fruitiness and trademark yeast bite towards the finish which ends as it begins. An intriguing brew that demands your full attention. Another winner.

Very much in the Belgian red style, with
that great sweet and sour combination. Dark
ruby red color, firm malty base, and moderate
sourness. Fairly intense, but a nice example.
If you like the style, you’ll like this one.
