Aus der Flasche bei Ellis Gourmet Burger in Brüssel. Dunkles rot-braun. Fester Schaum. Aroma Karamell. Geschmack Schokolade, Malz, Toffee, etwas Pflaume. Viel Kohlensäure, deswegen prickelnd.

Pours a mahogany brown colour with a medium sized beige head. A sweet caramel aroma with some fruit (prunes), malt and vanilla present. Taste is caramel and fruity plums with some alcohol coming through in a dryish lasting finish.

Bottle, 0.33l. Pours deep ruby body with one finger, creamy, slightly off-white head. Excellent head retention. Smell is floral, yeasty, slight chocolate presence. Medium body with thick and creamy texture, softly carbonated. Slightly bitter and boozy taste. Aroma of caramel malts, yeast, herbs. Spicy. Woody. Notable presence of alcohol... Brandy? A bit sticky on the tongue. Mouthfeel is boozy and mostly dry, same as the finish which lasts quite long. Overall, pretty good brew.

Pours dark brown from the bottle and leaves an attractive finger thick head that lingers amidst the sticky lacing. Aroma is caramel, a bit bready, maybe some dark fruits at a subtle level but fruitiness is not the main driver here. Taste is toffee, butterscotch, plum set atop a sweet lightly sugary undertone. Finish has a hint of spice and a light alcoholic warmth. All in all however the alcohol remains very much disguised. Body is relatively light but maintains a rich and creamy character. Adequate carbonation. A good Dubbel.

Todella, todella paksu ja pitkään kestävä vaahto. Tummanruskean punertava väriltään. Haju hyvin mieto. Maku yllättävän vetinen. Hieman katkeroa. Enemmän odottaisi makua. Pettymys. Lisäksi joku etikkamainen sivumaku. Ohut ja alkoholimainen maku.

Hatalmas, nagyon tartós, tömör bézs színű hab, barna szín. Pörkölt malátás, fűszeres illat. Íze pörkölt malátás, picit savanykás, karamelles, fűszeres. Utóíze pici keserű, de az gyorsan elillan, és csak egy kis pörkölt és savanykás aroma marad. Igen összetett ízvilággal rendelkezik, finom sör.

330ml bottle into tulip. Lightly chilled. Mahogany colour with champagne carbonation and large head. Nose is woodchips and burnt toffee. Full body. Slight zing in the mouth, finish is initially sour and fruity until some burnt toffee notes reappear. Alcohol well hidden. Nice, serious, contemplative beer.

330ml bottle. Pours a hazy red-brown with a huge, frothy, long lasting, beige head that leaves plenty of lacing. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, overripe fruit, brown sugar, wine and mild spice. Sweet flavour of dark fruit, caramel malt, spice, yeast, brown sugar and warming alcohol with a dry, surprisingly bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and lively carbonation. Nice.
