33cl bottle @home. Thick white head. Clear amber pour. Quite a nice dubbel.

Bottle brough home from Belgiun in 2010. Poors brown with a minimal offwhite head. Has a very sour aroma, like a.....belgian sour. Also has some candy sweetness. Quite acidic flavor, with a minor sugery sweetness. Not a good dubbel. Maybe something went wrong somewhere

Not a good dubble. Poors dark brown in glass, has little head and has a sour taste.

33cl bottle. Brown colour with a nice formation of a creamy and light tan head. Aroma is sweet, caramel and toasty. Flavor is moderate yeasty, bready, toasted malts with hints of caramel and plumcake. The final is moderate sweet and light bittery. Carbonation and body are medium.

330 ml bottle. From bierzwerg.de.
Dark chocolate brown colour with small tan head. Chocolate sweetness, mild sourness, caramel malt and Flavour is brown sugary sweetness, plums, dark fruits, bread, malt and touch of alcohol. Warming makes this much smoother.

Dark brownred colour, white foam. Tastes of chocolat and raisins. Little bitterness but the aftertaste is a bit watery.

33cL bottle. Decent appearance, normal copper dubbel color, some sediment. Light aroma, pleasant. Taste is lightly sweet, lightly malty, pretty good aftertaste, good carbonation. No lacing. Pleasant, but not exceptional.

Rather deep brown with a red copper hint, topped by a beige head, actually quite good looking. A nose of earthy spices, sandy, not all that pleasant. The taste is a mix of slightly sour and refreshing with some hop bitterness, a bit watery or weak. The aftertaste is smoother and shows a touch of that earthiness, as well as an alcoholic glow that contrasts nicely with the taste. In fact I like the aftertaste more than the actual taste, even if it’s more typical (less original) for a Dubbel. Medium-low carbonation.

(bottle) pours a hazy ruby-brown colour with a frothy off-white head. aroma of cinnamon, brown sugar and spicy floral hops, with a hint of straw, chocolate, green salad and strawberries. flavour is mostly the same, quite spicy, strawberries, floral hops and pale malts, with a hint of caramel, milk chocolate and honey. medium-bodied with average carbonation.
