Belgian Style Dubbel
Reddish-brown hue, skimpy off-white head, poor retention, no lace. The nose is weak, malty with hints of fruit, spice and alcohol but the aroma is empty and clean, especially for a Belgian-styled beer. Decent palate, rather roasty at first the mesh of spice, alcohol, fruity hints, candy-sweetness and chewy malts work well together. Unfortunately the finish is curt and clean. The mouthfeel is silky smooth and very enjoyable. This is very average beer and rather lackluster for the style. I wont bother with this one again.
