Bottle. Aroma spicy with light citrus fruits, light bubblegum. Rounded and inviting. Taste is rather sweet, both spicy and malty. A bit weird, not working with me. Finish turns somewhat tart. I am conflicted about this one.

Bottle Pours clear , very dark red/brown , small white head Sweet smell Taste is very sweet as well , but in a good , full , fruity way . Taste like it was barrel aged in wine or something like that . Very full taste , little traces of sugar though . Must say im very suprised ( in a good way ) about this one ! Aftertaste is dissapointing , sugary --- Beer aliased from original tick of WNTR on 27 Jul 2017 at 17:48 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 8. Original review text: Pours clear, dark amberbrown. Small white head. Smell is mild spiced, liquorice. Taste is full, mildly bitter, remotely sweet. Some complex, mild dark sugars. Mild liquorice. Nice complexity. Would have prefered aand bit more body though, at this ABV. Carbonation level is just right.

Floral, herbal aroma. Flavour has pleasant soft maltiness, light herbal taste and a clean finish. Lacks depth of flavour.

Hazy light blond colour with lasting, thick head. Aroma of light floral hop, pale malt, light soapiness. Refreshing taste with light hop bitterness and a soft malty backbone.

Pours a cloudy copper brown to brown beer, fine beige head, disappears quickly. No refermentation in the bottle, just came out of the Proefbrouwerij brewery. Aroma is heavy sweet, caramel, dried fruits. MF a little flat, no doubt because of the lack of refermentation yet. Round body, smooth texture, even a little oily. Taste of caramel, sweet fruits, roasted malts. Aftertaste has roasted malts, caramel, mocha and a nice sour twist to counter this all.

33cl Bottle from an EKO shop. Typical abbey dubbel imho. Dark brown, beige head. Aroma of brown sugar, burnt sugar, dark fruits, light-spicy yeast. Flavour is the same, hint of cocoa, light floral, bittersweet finish. Light to medium-bodied. Very bland, and a bit too sweet for me.
