33cl, best before 22/04/2016. The beer starts smooth and sourish. Fresh, smooth. Nice horse blanket with a malty smooth body. The aftertaste is smooth-sourish, malty-fresh, interesting dry.

Slight explosion as soon as top cracked, but not too extreme. Nice hazy golden honey coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall just off-white head with a zillion small bubbles rising from the bottom. Aroma of sour gueuze, light brett, wheat, coriander seed, yeast, alcohol, grass, hay and a bit of sweet apples and pears - very nice and complex smells. Medium to Full-bodied; Assertive effervescence with a very nice sour quality up front that fades fast to coriander seed, curacao, honey, grass, wheat and a lot of yeast...all with a nice dry finish. Aftertaste is very complex with the yeast and wheat hitting hardest, but some coriander seed freshness coupled with some light sweetness from fruit and the constant effervescence shows some sour and brett flavours from the yeast. Overall, a very nice and incredibly complex beer that shows a ton of flavours ranging the gamut and a nice texture with carbonation makes it even more exciting. I sampled this stubby 33 cL bottle purchased from Beer Mania in Bruxelles, Belgium on 30-June-2012 for €3,99 sampled at home in Washington exactly a week after returning from Belgium again on 26-January-2015.

Malty taste with caramel, dark fruit, dark bread, chocolate, roasted malt and a gentle spicy bitterness. Almost full body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty, solid and well made dubbel. Nice one.

10% On tap at Luppolo 12 at the end of the night, an opaque muddy brown with a minimal head and a boozy sweet malt nose. The taste was the same but too be honest by this point my taste buds were probably shot. Middle of the road Belgian Christmas beer.

Flasche (33 cl), MHD: 07/2015, somit zweieinhalb Jahre alt. - Tiefes Kastanienbraun mit rötlichem Schimmer, trüb. - In der Nase Röstmalz, milde Malzsüße, zart säuerliche Frucht. - Antrunk kräftig röstmalzig und nicht allzu süß mit Brotkruste, Lakritz, Pflaumenmus und etwas Schokolade. Die dunkelmalzige Süße ist ausbalanciert durch pikant-fruchtige Säure. Brauseartig rezent; für ein Bier dieser Schwere etwas dünn im Mund. Leicht weinig-alkoholisch und nur wenig fruchtig-herb im Abgang. - Ordentlich aber nicht so ganz mein Fall: zuviel Süßsauer und zu wenig Hopfen, auch zu rezent.
