Broeder Jacob Double Port is the first Belgian beer to be fortified with port. This brand new combination has brought something new to the beer landscape. The dark and full-flavoured beer has a subtile aftertaste of walnuts and produces a unique taste explosion that can develop to the flavour of a true vintage. The beer is fortified with the exquisite Tawny port Portal d’Azenha. This elegant and delicate port matures for at least five years in oak barrels. Enjoy this exclusive beer! EBC 120.

Bottle as "double port" stable fluffy head, hazy dark brown colour, aroma of dark bread, caramel and chocolate cake, flavour of dark fruits, dark bitter chocolate, dark bread and caramel, quite sweet but mellow and not cloying, very smooth and easy to sip, suprisingly light for a 9% brew, excellent with grilled entrecote. Highly enjoyable

Bottle. As Double Port. It pours a clear, dark reddish brown body under a dense, finger-thick dark beige head. The aroma is roasted and cellarish, with prunes and dried figs, some alcohol too. Almost vinous. The flavor isn’t equally interesting and complex, but still quite nice. Prunes and dried figs and some alcohol warmth. Full body and a pleasant carbonation, with a little warming touch. Some dms in the finish, where it’s mostly dried fruits showing up. A bit short finish. Pity the flavor isn’t in the same league as the aroma, but it’s a nice one anyway. 140111
