375 ml bottle into chalice, bottled on 12/18/2014. Pours fairly hazy/cloudy ruby red/copper color with a 1 finger dense and rocky light khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a good amount of streaming carbonation retaining the head. Aromas of raisin, plum, fig, date, pear, apple, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, pepper, clove, light chocolate, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/bready malt, fruity/spicy yeast, and light earthy hop notes; with good strength. Taste of raisin, plum, fig, date, pear, apple, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, pepper, clove, light chocolate/nuttiness, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness. Good amount of earthy yeast spiciness on the finish; with lingering notes of raisin, plum, fig, pear, apple, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, pepper, clove, light chocolate/nuttiness, and herbal/yeast earthiness on the finish for a while. Damn nice complexity and robustness of dark/bready malt, fruity/spicy yeast, and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/yeast balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium-high carbonation and medium bodied; with a very smooth, crisp, and lightly creamy/bready mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a damn nice dubbel style. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready malt, fruity/spicy yeast, and light earthy hops flavors; and very smooth and crisp to drink for the ABV. A very enjoyable offering.

375 ml bottle. Darker brown color with a steady off white head. Aroma is candy sugars, dark bread notes and some raisin.

The flavor is mostly the same as the aroma and is layered pretty nice. The body and palate and body is on the lighter side but doesn’t hurt it in any way. The malts and spice is done very nicely, a tasty example of the style! Nice creamy, vibrant mouthfeel, I enjoyed this a lot.

Aroma has lots of raisin and date notes with some sweet grains, a bit of toffee and a Belgian yeast influence. Flavor is raisin and date forward supported by sweet grains and some Belgian yeast.

Pours deep mahogany into a trappist glass. Tan micro head with good retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Dark caramel and fig aromas. Dry and sharp with dark pit fruit and caramel upfront turning to warming roasted nuts and toffee in the medium length finish.

Bottle thanks to Dan. Pours a ruby color with a large beige head. A light fruity yeasty nose. The flavor is mild toffee, spices, cherry and other berries, a bit of dry yeast. Pretty mellow. Soft and simple. Lots of carb. I really did the bottle, looks very clean and is perfect marketing.

Reminds me of the Rare Vos. Blood like. Lacks in flavor. Disappointing, like Tottenham today.
