Bottled. A golden beer with a huge off-white head. The aroma has notes of malt and some spices. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and some straw, leading to a bitter finish. Thanks KimJohansen for sharing.

Bottle that I picked up at Dranken Geers, Oostakker, Gent, Belgium, 31-10-09 consumed 15-12-09 Pours a really muddy puddle brown in fact nothing like the picture, this stuff is really murky and my careless pouring (though I didn’t realise I was being careless) has ensured that there is tons of sediment like a hundred million jellyfish swirling about in this. Aroma is of rough, raw cane sugar. Taste is rich, malty, spicy and with a good depth of flavour. Ok its a bit rough around the edges not least in the appearance but its most likeable, mollasses, a spicy peppery bitterness, if the aroma and appearance had of offered a bit more this could have been a really decent beer, as it is, it just pretty decent.

33 cL bottle at Delerium. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is sweet and caramelish. Dry malty flavoured, rather phenolic and spiced. Simple, clean and classic. Ends dry and with a lasting phenolic impression.

33cl Bottle from Achelse Kluis, ABV 8.3%. Clear golden orange colour, white head. Thick aroma of bready malts and some light spices. Flavour is light sweet, fruity, malty, metallic, light bitter bit spicy finish. Light to medium bodied, thin and prickly mouthfeel. Very metallic actually. Not very pleasant.

Very dense & fine, light-yellow head over metallic-yellow beer. Dry-spicy, loam; lightly toasted malts, very discreet. Very dry-bitter flavour, strange vegetable bitterness, like celeriac, but less sweet. Again - loam. Well-attenuated, medium bodied, spritzy-burning at swallowing. Very special taste... but far from bad.

33cl bottle from Dranken Geers. Clear brown ruby colour thick beige head. Bit of gravy browning on this dubbel. Some ok rich dryish malts. But if anything a bit too much on the malts and it makes it a bit sickly. Yes, it is almost as though not fully attenuated. I don’t think that is the case, but there is some definite puke in the malts though. Bit too gassy and not really my kinda dubbel. Prefer something much drier or more vinous.
