Bottle from total wine. Pours clear light brown with only a dusting of a head. Aroma is chocolate, caramel malts. Taste is black cherries, chocolate malts, caramel, but overwhelming dark fruit, especially cherry. Almost a peanut buttery finish as well. Quite tasty. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle. Brown/copper body with a short off-white head, rapidly diminishing. Mild aroma caramel. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes moderately sweet and lightly bitter. Thin to medium body, watery texture, soft carbonation. No Belgian yeast characteristics. Taste of plastic and chemicals dominate resulting in no chance for the malts to come through (as they should in a dubbel). Slick and oily on tongue in the finish. Meh. Any good qualities? Not in this drain pour of a beer.

Bottle. Pours dark amber with small light beige foamy head that disappeared immediately, slight roasted malt aroma, medium carbonation, mellow roasted malt taste, abrupt finish. Lacks the kick of an abbey dubbel!

12oz Bottle poured into a Corsendonk badged stemmed tulip on 14th July 2014 in Orange County while on holiday. Looked fine a red hue to the brown body, the head a nun staying off white colour. Fairly malty nose and taste bordering on sweet. The body seemed a little thin for the alcohol, but it suited the beer. Overall not bad, but a long way from what I am used too when I have a proper Belgian Abbey Dubbel.
Not bad at all.

Pours clear dark copper/brown with a small tan head, light lacing. Aroma is sweet, fruity and malts. Flavor is sweet, toasted malts, mild nutty with a dry finish. Light and thin body
A nice easy drinking dubbel.

12oz bottle. Amber-tan filtered body, thin oily head which is all but gone. Mellow raisin, dark fruit aromas, quite pleasant. This is a really solid beer, very fresh tasting. Bready, creamy malt tones, a touch of chocolate, a touch of spicy hop balance. A really well made US Dubbel, lots of character, and not a rich sugary mess. Not on the same level as a good Belgian, but a good stateside example nonetheless.
