This top-fermented dark beer is brewed with roasted malts. The secondary fermentation in the bottle gives it its powerful and pleasant character. Reddish-brown with a creamy and persistent head.The nose is quite complex, powerful and full-bodied with earthy notes of old wood. First aromas are powerful (alcohol), spicy (wood) yet always well balanced, leading up to a pleasantly caramelised finish. The round mouthfeel and roasted malty flavour reinforce the aromas of coffee and toffee (molasses and caramelised butter). Its dark colour and warm strength make Waterloo Double Dark a delicious beer!

(Bottle, Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm) Dark brown colour with lasting, beige head. Malty nose with notes of caramel, dried fruit, raisins, dark bread and brown sugar. Malty, fruity taste with dried fruit, raisins, figs, dark bread and spices (cinnamon, nutmeg). More than medium body, with balanced sweetness and a moderate, spicy bitterness. Solid, well made and tasty abbey dubbel.

Deep amber red coloured, small to medium sized off-white head that went away fast, mild touch of alcohol in rather neutral nose. Sweet malty, caramel and dark fruits with mild spicy and quite alcoholic finish.

Pours dark copper with a stupidly huge, growing tan head.Rich spicy aroma with lots of golden syrup and brown sugar. Incredibly sweet. Noticeable cloves and cinnamon play a large part too.Similarly sweet flavours, the golden syrup and brown sugar really dominate. Some hot alcohol follows through making for quite a cloying beer.Too much carbonation.
