Good color, and the head is perfect. Really nice bready, toffee, malts. Flavor is quite grainy, some nice cereals. Light bitterness, this is really bang on for the style. Little to no hops, dry lightly bitter finish. Great dubbel style malts. Great stuff.

Aroma of malts, caramel, dark fruits, raisins. Flavour is dark fruity sweetness. Nice Dubbel, a bit on the sweet side but not bothersome.

33 cl bottle served in a Teku glass. A hazy reddish-brown pour with a thickly lacing, rapidly diminishing, beige head. Aroma is chocolate, red berries, caramel, butterscotch, corn syrup, burnt paper, treacle, ash. Slightly sweet, fizzy, quite tart (even too much so), medium-bodied. Medium-lasting finish stained by a cloying touch.
