Bottle at Moorings. It pours clear brown with a thick beige head. The nose is earthy, brown bread, toast, light spice and wood. The taste is brown bread, raisin, date, caramel, wood, leather, light bitterness, candy and a touch of alcohol with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Rather drinkable stuff.

Apperently this is different from the small bottle with a blue label. The color of the beer certainly is different, but the taste is a bit similar. Also soft, creamy and with some herbs. Nice.

Tasty dubbel beer. Has some caramelised malt and a tasty fruity edge. Quite nice.

God duft av frukter og litt gjær. Gullen litt dunkel rødbrun farge. Tynt dekkende skum, noe heng langs kant. Nydelig frisk smak av frukter, noe karbonering.

Brown hazy colour, with medium beige head. Smell is nutty and some ripe fruits. Taste is similar, with some little wood notes, sweet but with some little sourness too. A good beer, but St. Bernardus has better ones.

Troebel licht bruin bier met hoppige smaak. mooie schuimkraag die blijft staan. Lichte rook smaak, chocolade en fruit. Smaak blijft opmerkelijk lang hangen.
Aanrader !

Bottle from Beer Mania in 07.06.2010, price was 2,95 EUR.Małą butelka, z granatowa etykieta, ale z Piwo rubinowa-brazowa barwa. Smak lekko slodki na poczatku, potem przechodzacy w wytrawna octowosc, leciutko kwaskowaty posmak pozostawia. Bardzo dlugi finisz. Drozdze dodane do butelki zrobily swoje piwo staje sie metne. Smak to figi i suszona sliwka, ladna bezowa i spora piana, moze nie za trwala ale puszysta, wystrzelil korek z hukiem ze az sie zadymilo, ale mimo to srednio nagazowane.

Good example of the style, but definitely for people with a sweet tooth.
