Orange marmelade aroma with definite baby food pear notes. Hazy brown pour, headless. Maltier than expected, medium body. Relatively uncomplex flavor of fig and cookies. Perhaps cinnamon on the palate, but that’s a stretch. Little complexity, but the alcohol is tastefully concealed.

Deep dark brown in colour with strong crimson highlights and a light tan head. Aroma of nuts, spices, fresh hops, a light smoke and a strong caramel scent. Medium-bodied; Odd raisiny sweetness up front with tons of malt & spices noticeable. Aftertaste bittering, but some pit fruit tastes linger long. Overall, a darker and spicier double compared to the norm, but nuts make for more of a brown taste. Good to try! I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Chevy Chase Wine & Liquors in Washington, D.C. on 21-June-2005 at Jon(R888710)’s.

Draft @ AVBC, Boonville, CA. Pours a dark brown color with a small off-white head. Has a malty yeasty spicy aroma with hints of ripe fruit. Malty spicy yeasty flavor with hints of dark fruit and chocolate. Has a sweetish spicy yeasty dark fruit finish.

Pour is a brown with an almost flat tan head. Aroma is super sweet with some dark fruit and alcohol. Flavor is some dark fruit with brown sugar and a warming alcohol. A good beer but just ok for the style as there is nothing jumping out at me that would put this over in the excellent category.

Clear dark amber with medium beige head. Sweet aroma with roasted malt, caramel and yeasty notes. Sweet flavour with overripe fruits, roasted malt, caramel and yeasty notes. Sweet finish with warming alcohol.

Bottle from Lee’s Discount Liquor, Las Vegas
Dark mahogany color, big thick head. It has a good caramel and chocolate aroma, strong body, medium sweetness, chocolate flavor, caramel of course, correct bitterness, alcohol warmth at the end. Maybe a bit too strong, correctly brewed, but without emotions, monodimensional and boring after a few sips.

Thanks to Neslon for sharing thsi one. Pours brown with beige head. Aroma is of caramel / sirupy almost of mapple. Taste, some notes of dark fruits (prunes), lightly hoppy, some spices leaving a tingly feeling on the palate.

Deep dark ruby-brown; small yellow rim. Little nose, a bit citrussy. Pale and other malts. Bread, bit o’ liquorice, more malts. Fruity, with orangepeel. Medium bodied at best. Strong Belgian ale that has been alleviated with???

On tap at The Front Door Boise. Pours out a amber topped with a off white head. A nice sweet aroma of dark fruit. Tast of sweetness and a hint of bitter. Over all good Dubbel
