A classic I have had many times over the years, especially 2000s, but somehow never rated. Awesome body, sublime effervescence. Deep chunky chocolate malt notes, balanced out by the yeast. Full bodied and rich, but mellower than most Quads. Delicious dark malt tones. Excellent.

Romans are dark malt, Belgian yeast, and banana. Flavors are similar to nose. On the sweet side with great Belgian double fermentation.

Aus der Flasche (bbe 31.12.2016) im 2025-12 getrunken. Dieses dunkelbraune Ale zeigt seine schweren Malzaromen mit etwas Karamell und einer feinen Süße. Dadurch das es schon so alt ist hat es eine tolle Flaschreifung erhalten. Die Schaumkrone ist zwar kurzweilig aber es ist noch voller "Leben" (Kohlensäure). Ein schöner dunkler Belgier!

Bottle at home. Aroma of dark malt, caramel, toffee, dark fruits, brown sugar, some roasted notes, some chocolate. Flavour is sweet with a light bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. Rich and sweet, pretty enjoyable. More or less seems to be a stronger version of the Dubbel, which I had before this one.

Аромат классический Бельгийский для темного эля. Много темных фруктов, есть дрожжи, как будто даже намеки на бананы, немного меда и специй. Цвет полу темный, пенка средняя. Вкус если честно слабоватый по отношению к запаху. Почему то много кислоты, и это даже не кислинка а прямо кислота сильная которая при глотке усиливается. Есть темные фрукты, снова дрожжи, немного бананов и меда. Специи есть. Но все не сильно и кислота как сказал. Может такая бутылка попалась.
