Bottle at De Markies, Leeuwarden. Aroma of malt, bread, caramel, toffee, nuts, candy, sweet dark fruits. Flavour is rather sugary sweet. Body is medium to full. This beer has got the aroma and full body down, but is ruined by a massive sugary sweetness.

Bottle. Nice deep brown. Cardboard, spices, caramel, blue curaçao maybe, raisins. Medium sweet. A bit weird and all over the place. Not great.

@home poured into a chalice. Opaque deep ruby brown colour, small stable creamy beige head, good retention and lacing. Strong sweet aroma, sweet malt, caramel, molasses, honey, candy sugar. Taste light heavy sweet, some malty bitterness, caramel, candy sugar. Medium body, oily to watery texture, soft carbonation, mild sweetbitter aftertaste, caramel, sugary, a beer that lacks strength and zest, average dubbel.

Deep dark color. Orange and liquorice in the aroma. Bit of tartness in the flavor. Orange, coreander, liquorice, caramel, coffee. Sweetish and a bit sticky. Nice, complex beer. Until 1961 in this brewery a lambic was made. Mixed with a topfermenting beer it was sold as a Dubbele Java. This beer was reintroduced in the mid-nineties, but it can’t be the same beer. Years ago I read an interview with the former brewer. He still had some bottles of the old lambic left and mixed it with a Belgian beer to get a beer resembling the former Dobbel Java. Swing top bottle, tasted in august 2015, sold as De Halve Maan XX Dubbel. Brown color, lumps of yeast. caramel in the soft spicy aroma. caramelly sweet flavor with licorice, pear drups and coreander. Orange peel. Decent.

Flesje meegenomen van weekend Zeeland. Diep donkerbruin helder bier met weinig schuim. Aroma van caramel en fruit. De smaak is zoet, caramelachtig en fruitig (pruimen, druiven). Weinig nasmaak.
