In de neus valt een lichtzoete toets op - de alcohol (8 vol.% Alc) is daar niet vreemd aan - maar toch komt dit sterk bier fris over. De smaak is volmondig en prikkelend op de tong. Lichtjes zoet (maar niet plakkerig), een vleugje rijp fruit, maar vooral koffiebitter bepalen het karakter van dit bier. Ook de lange afdronk wordt door deze bitterheid overheerst.

Bottle at le coq. Nostalgia! Lovely Dubbel. Rich fruitiness, ovaltine maltiness, dry, cocoa, quite initial hit of bitterness too though. Finish is caramel and smooth. Forgot how great this is.

Orange and dark brown color with a frothy head. Chunks of yeast. Tropical fruit aroma and flavor, especially pineapple. Some late hopbitterness. Licorice. Hints of sourness. Well made beer, that lacks the complexity of many other trappist ales.

The type of beer you really need to drink quite warm to get the flavours out. It’s more of a dubbel than a dark strong. Not super bold flavours for the style, but they are all there but rather subdued. online belgian beer factory

Bottled. Pours clear, dark reddish brown with an ivory head that doesn't last long but leaves a lasting thin layer. Aroma is rather subtle: chocolate, cola, cinnamon, caramel. Mouthfeel is fizzy, somewhat watery, easy-drinking, smoky, longer than you'd think. Good.

Pours medium brown, possibly slightly hazy, with a middle-sized dense white head, which shows ok retention and nice lacing. Aroma shows a sweet caramel and slightly sugary base, with notes of dark/dried fruits. Good enough intensity, not too deep. Taste is deeper than the aroma suggested. Sweet entrypoint with caramel and slight sugar (but also showing some toasted notes). Fruit notes of banana and dark/dried fruits, maybe a hint of spiciness. Finish is in perfect balance with a (still clean) earthy aftertaste. Medium to dense in body with medium to dense carbonation, resulting in a quite full but still easy enough mouthfeel. Overall, a very classic dubbel/strong dark, with good complexity and excellent balance.
