Common descriptors are Dubbel Date is CVB’s Belgian Style Abbey Dubbel Ale brewed with Medjoul Dates Hadley Date Gardens grown right in the Coachella Valley. Typically, dark candy sugars are used to formulate Belgian Style Dubbels but we took a different approach by employing Medjoul Dates which are the crown jewel of the Coachella Valley date growers and are the most sought after date because of their massive size and complex taste. Dubbel Date is described as a rich, and malty ale, boasting notes of cherry and plum with some steely caramel flavor from the two additions of dates in the boil kettle. The Belgian Trappist yeast produces fruit, and spices, like raisin, anise and pepper and finishes with mild alcoholic warmth. |
