Brewed since 1985. It is a top fermentation beer with refermentation in the bottle. Color: dark red-brown beer. Taste: very subtle taste, mixture of fruit, herbs and caramel flavor without one of them becoming predominant with a slightly bitter aftertaste.

1998 vintage at Kulminator, May 2005. Dark brown ale with burgundy hue and a light moka head. Light caramelized sugar in mouth, with milk chocoalte notes. Lightly sour notes. Beer as maderized nicely, bringing out woody notes in this sour brown ale.

(Bottle 33 cl) Dark amber with a full and frothy head. Very dry, almost ashy flavours - far from the malty sweetness one would expect in a Dubbel. An odd sour finish almost reminiscent of Rodenbach although somehow not as quenching. An odd bird indeed. 301297 (Bottle 33 cl) As "Drongens Plezierke"Dark beer with a huge head. Soft and very malty notes in a nice balance with the hops. Very tasty and easy to drink - in spite of the alcohol. My kinda beer. 8/4/8/4/16= 4 130694

Bottle Rocky off-white head, moslty diminishing. Excellent lace. Deep amber, hazy body. Pine in the nose. Moderately sweet, moderately bitter initial flavour. Lightly sweet, lightly bitter finish (long-lasting). Light to medium bodied.

A deep red beer with a beutiful beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of yeast, corriander, and plums. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of corriander and plums giving way to a dry hoppy end. The body is thin - especially considering the 8% ABV.

Huge, very thick head, yellowishhly tinted, slowly collapsing; very dark brown with deep ruby shine. Nose with brown candi sugar, rich coloured malts, spicey finish. Sweet, with roasted malts, just a touch of light-roasted bread or biscuits. Some liqueurish notes. Spicey, but no identifying. Well-bodied, chewy mouthfeel. Aftertaste has a suspicion of sourness, as well as bitter almonds flavour. Nice dubbel. This one was very fresh, but I know from experience this beer has quite some ageing potential.

Beautiful ruby amber color; generous, creamy head. Malt aroma; caramel; light fruitness (cherry-like). Dry and sour taste, refreshing; malt (and a residual sweetness) with some fruity hint (light cherries...).
I would rather define it as a Flemish Sour Ale.

I sampled the unfiltered version bottled 1991 in 2001. Brownish red appearance. Acidic and vinuous, complex and well matured.
