Bottle at home. Very dark brown with good sized beige head. Sweet red apple, caramel, dates, fresh figs, brown bread and even a bit of rye bread. Basically lots of classic dubbel notes, I don't realkly get much roast that you would expect in a stout. There's a little cardboard and earth in the finish. Solid medium sweet and unde rmedium bitter. Slick medium body with a bit of an oily feel. It's quite alright, but no match for any of the Belgian classics.

Tap at the source. Described to me as a cross between a Dubbel and a Stout. I mainly taste Dubbel. Dark brown with creamy light tan head. Sweet roasted malts, dried fruit, licorice. Moderate sweet and bitter. Medium body and low carbonation. --- Beer merged from original tick of DAVO Darkness on 15 Nov 2018 at 17:26 - Score: 6

Bottle [thanks to RW80] @ home. Dark red-brown color with a relatively small off-white head. Smell and taste malts, some caramel, some sweetness and some bitterness. Can’t detect much more. Decent to medium body and carbonation. Meh for an Abbey Dubbel, but a drinkable beer.
