(Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy reddish amber with a fine and pretty solid beige coloured head. A bit too plenty CO2. Spicy, malty and very "Belgian" nose. Lovely soft with lots of roasted malt, caramel and brown sugar - and then a touch of spices. A very classical Dubbel. 191205

Bottled (BB 12/2006)
Very dark ruby, big cloudy tan head, lace. Fruity, slightly aromatic hoppy - anise aroma, a bit of brown sugar and roasted malts. Roasted malty, coffee, prunes ... not the winner but quite ordinary bruin - maltyness is a plus.

Bottled. Nut brown. There’s red currant and dark chocolate in the nose. It’s dry and roasty with notes of licorice and an intense salty finish. Really good!

Bottle. Malty, slightly metallic aroma. Cloudy dark brown colour, big unstable head. Flavour is full, malty, roasted, salty. Nice mouthfeel, goes down well. I do not know why people are so hard on this beer, I like it.

Dark reddish-brown collor, giant creamy head. Aroma of chocolate malts, some fruits. When i took a sip of skortila's 'pere abbe bruin' it tasted very metallic and acidic, but mine today is very nice actually, more chocolate malty and sweet. Sweet and sticky palate.

Dark-brown with reddish shine. Thick, very irregular head with big bubbles. Caramel, mocca, soap, and maybe some malt in the nose. Not roasted, but burnt malt. A meaty taste, like aspic from a meat-pastry. The yeast, no doubt. The 'slight bitterness' is there immediately. Harsh finish, burnt. Medium-bodied. there is a commercial description, bordering on the cynical. It's not really bad.
