Bel Dubbel PKG SKU: T-BA-BD Price: $42.59 |
Belgian Dubbel is a strong, tawny beer that originates from only one known brewery, Westmalle Trappist Monastery in Belgium. There are a number of commercial examples that are called "Abbey Style" ales, but none are true Trappist ales. This ale always has a very malty character, especially in the nose. The hops never really seem to emerge, and the taste is laden with powerful malt flavor. The body is medium to heavy with a chewy character that is sweet but balanced. The use of authentic Belgian candi sugar lends a slight tartness. Head retention is generally low, but the redeeming quality of this ale is the wealth of alcohol and maltiness.
