Brown colored. Strong aroma. With its aspect of coffee/mocha, it releases a taste of roasted malt not too deep and not too neutral. Slightly spicy, it reminds you that this beer is essentially for degustation. It can be consumed at the room temperature or slightly cooled.

Bottled at Horsens Beerfestival. Unclear, brown with a beige head. Roasted aroma with coffee and caramel. The flavor is sweet and spiced with dried fruits and some coffee. Medium to full body. I expected more from this. (061028)

Bottled. Dark ruby red colour, with sediments floating around. Head is big, fluffy and brownish and leaves lace. Aroma is barnyard and alcohol. Slight hints of malts. Very boring aroma in fact. Flavour is metallic, yeasty and some alcohol. Slight nuttyness also when it gets a bit warmer. Quite barnyardish and earthy in the finish and aftertaste. Surprisingly thin palate. Not too bad, just boring.

(Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm) Colour is dark brown with a firm beige head. Somewhat closed nose, mainly dominated by malt: cereal, roasted grain, dark bread and some nutty notes. A lot more taste: sweet, nutty, fruity with dark cherries ... and maybe some black currant. Hints of chocolate and some sweet marzipan notes in the finish. A good quality beer, but can’t really match the best abbey dubbels.

This is the first time I have had this beer. Sampled from an 11.2 oz brown bottle this beer poured a black color with red highlights and a huge khaki head that lingers and produces copious lacing. This is really a very pretty beer. The aroma is sweet and bready with a moderate ripe dark fruit undertone. The flavor is strongly sour with ripe fruits and a hint of caramel and molasses. There is a bitter tangy finish.

Pour is a cloudy brown with a huge white head. Aroma is hard to detect but there are some malts showing up along with a nice whiff of alcohol. Flavor is slightly woody and with an aftertaste of bananas. Not the best Belgian by a longshot but worth a try.

Bottle. Brown beer with an off-white head. Light malt aroma with some yeast. Malt and candi sugar flavor - too sweet. Some background fig fruitiness, but not much going on.
