Het donker, roodbruine trappistenbier van Westmalle, de Dubbel, bevat dankzij nagisting op fles (7%) een rijke en complexe smaak. Die wordt gekenmerkt door toetsen van karamel, mout en fruitige esters die doen denken aan rijpe banaan. De eerste kennismaking met de Dubbel van Westmalle is een crèmekleurige dikke schuimkraag. Na het drinken laat deze een mooi kantwerk achter in het glas. Maar de echte herinnering van dit evenwichtige trappistenbier met zacht mondgevoel is ongetwijfeld de lange, droge afdronk.

Bottle, 2024 vintage. Caramel malt aroma with notes of dark fruit, toffee, Candi sugar, banana, clove, spicy Belgian yeast and herbal notes. Pours deep brown with a finger of tan head that has excellent retention and good lacing. Starts with caramel, dark fruit, banana and Candi sugar flavors as well as having a rich, full body and smooth mouthfeel. Finishes quite smooth with toffee, clove, spicy Belgian yeast and herbal flavors. Excellent dubbel.

Bottle, Nice brown color. Aroma is slightly fruity, raisin maybe, malty but subtle and not loud. Nice head, good flavor. Yep, like a good but not grear trappist beer. Good stuff.

0.33 l bottle. Dark brown, almost black color, beige head. Fruits, malts and sweet alcohol in aroma. The taste is quite the same, but the alcohol is well hidden. The finish is quite short. Medium to heavy body.
