Appearance:
Wood stain in color. Pours extremely frothy, as a champagne, and settles into a thin creamy ring that clings to the sides of the glass. Some haze appears in the glass.

Smell:
Spicy aromas, alcohol notes and fruity esters. Yeast aromas hit the nose as you get to the dregs of the bottle.

Taste:
Whoa! This brew has some complexities! At first, fruit and higher kilned malt flavors coat the palate. Then, a sudden black pepper spiciness, tartness and fruitiness come into domination,going spicy once again at the end. A very subtle hop flavor is noted which gives the brew some balance.

Notes:
This is an outstanding dubbel! Comparable to a fine wine, easily accompanying most cuisine styles. Very drinkable for an 8 percent abv brew, a tease beer as you want more. If this is "cursed", damn us to hell!
