De Six O Six is ons nieuw donker bier en tevens de opvolger van onze VanAcht. Hiermee zenden wij een SOS signaal naar de buitenwereld om de ziekte van Duchenne te bestrijden. De receptuur van dit bier is van onze goede vriend Gunther Bensch (brouwerij Montaigu, Scherpenheuvel).

Newish beer from Vossen Met De Meynen, dedicated to Duchenne’s disease and made to a recipe by Gunther Bensch of Montaigu. Bottle from Willems. Creamy, dense, pale beige head with limited lacing, over a misty, dark purplish burgundy beer with a fine haze of yeast suspended in it. Sweet cookie dough aroma, a ton of home-made caramel, caramel candy and butterscotch, hint of unrefined baker’s chocolate, a lot of candied fig and raisin, cashew nuts, brown sugar, coriander, molasses, biscuit, white pepper, hint of dried thyme and less agreeable odours of rotting grass, burnt cardboard and rainwater, but luckily these fade away after a while. Estery, sweetish onset of cherries, brambleberries and blackcurrant with a strong citrus peel sourishness, medium carbo, typically Belgian banana and bubblegum flavours, smooth and supple malt body, deeply caramelly but a bit chocolatey too without the bitterness, lightly toasted in the end, with resiny coriander and a leafy, earthy and lightly spicy hop bitterishness coming in for balance; malt sweetness remains the last impression, along with a bready yeastiness especially in the end of the bottle, an unexpected port-like sweetness popping up as well as a cloying coriander spiciness (sigh...). The taste is enjoyable, with a fairly good balance between sweet malts and bitter hops; this is an interesting beer, but perhaps a bit too spiced to my taste. In terms of style: to me, this is a very typical sweet dubbel, with some Scotch-like characteristics; at least the toasted and chocolate accents as well as the beige head reveal that actual dark malts are used instead of some syrup, which is always a good sign. Just needs more finetuning.

330 ml. bottle @ home. Purchased @ Willems & Zoon. BBF 11/02/2017. Dark brownish amber, small mocha head. Nose is roasted cheap coffee, mocha powder, coffee grounds, old chocolate, chocolate syrup, mildly sweet & grainy, promising. Taste is creamy grainy chocolate milk, faint sweet coffee machine coffee, Starbucks Ice Coffee, mocha, creamy, silky, sweet chocolate milk, sweet hazelnuts, mocha ice cream,… Very creamy & sweet with plenty of sugar in a great dessert kind of way. There is a very faint bitterness in the finish. A pleasant treat & surprise. Silky sweet this is akin to an instant cold coffee sugar / desert treat. I don’t consider Abbey Dubbel to be a style but for whatever it is worth, this is by far the best one I have had so far. This is really way more a sweet stout (despite the lack of lactose) than a Belgian Dark Ale / Abbey Dubbel.
