Hazy brown, moderate white head. Lacing present. Complex aroma of caramel, spicy yeast, candy, dark fruit. Medium body. Surprisingly dry taste. Bread, caramel, dried fruit, Belgian yeast. Light balancing bitterness. High class.

Pours hazy brown with a short-lasting tan head. The aroma contains malts, yeast, raisin, dark fruits, spices and some caramel. It tastes medium sweet and light sour. Medium body and creamy mouthfeel. In all aspects the little brother of the St. Bernardus beers.

Can’t believe I finally tried this, wow, well, ok, this was poured into a chalice.
The appearance was a ruddy dark brown color with a finger’s worth of white to off white foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute. Glossy filmy lacing clung and then slid into the glass nicely.
The aroma starts off with sweet iced apples, sly Belgian spices of allspice, ginger, and sweet cake to bready raison-like fruitiness. Comes together really damn good!
The flavor takes all of the previously mentioned flavors to meld in a nice refined sweet to spicy sort of way. Normal Belgian quickening throatiness doesn’t harden on my throat in the aftertaste or finish like a fair amount of other Americanized- Belgian Dubbels.
On the palate, this one sits about a light to medium in body with a great sessionability about it. Carbonation rides light. ABV barely feels there.
Overall, love it for what it is, and would love to come back to this perhaps a bit later this Autumn. In my opinion, probably one of the best Belgian Dubbels on the market and we can get this in the USA. Everything just comes together so damn good!
