On tap at La Capsule Lille. Golden coloured, medium sized off-white head, light caramel and whiff of pine in the nose. Sweet malty, fruity, light piney and touch of caramel with some alcohol in the finish. Seems not so fresh.

Bière dégustée en terrasse à L'oxford à Lille. Robe jaune dorée, trouble, belle mousse blanche fine et persistante. Nez envoutant de fruits exotiques, avec du citron, un soupçon de mangue et de fruit de la passion. L’attaque est souple, très fruitée, presque juteuse. On retrouve les agrumes, un côté tropical bien présent, légèrement sucré sans lourdeur. Amertume discrète, bien fondue. C’est léger, parfumé, facile à boire — presque un jus de fruits houblonné. Très rafraîchissante, belle maîtrise. Un régal !

Draught @ La Capsule, Lille. This has got to be the lightest coloured dubbel I've ever had, misty golden chestnut in appearance, off-white head. Some welcome mild chocolate shades on the nose and to taste, but lacks any kind of serious sweetness, no candy rock sugar used that I can tell, no Belgian dubbel yeast, and the addition of chocolate / cocoa is a strange one. Quite a mild flavour profile overall, but neither here nor there really. Most odd.

Draught @ Raising Hops, Lille. Pours a misty blonde, good white head. Aroma brings a welcome Belgian air, floral and light in tone. Flavour profile continues in a similar fashion, sessionable and balanced with a moreish Belgian yeast presence, gentle bitter close.

Tap. La Capsule, Lille. Light haze on a pale to medium gold. Decent lasting white foam. Nose has rye like spice. Belgian yeast action. Grassy and herbal. Taste is fairly dry barring a moderate grainy sweetness. Clean overall. Bit of bitterness creeps into the finish.
