Presentation: 750ml brown bottle ... corked and caged. Batch #8. No freshness date on the bottle.

Appearance: Deep dark amber brown with an ever so healthy off white lace that clings all over the glass.

Smell: Some medicinal, herbal and light coffee in the nose.

Taste: Rich with a well structured mouthfeel, very smooth and turning dry in the end. Hints of anise, juniper and liquorice ... herbal and phenolic. Hint of coffee with a candy sweetness in the middle ... long lasting dry finish with more hints of coffee and earth.

Notes: Allagash seems to be giving the Belgians a run for their money ... very drinkable for such a complex and big beer. An amazing American brewed dubbel. Great with grilled steaks, steamed asparagus and roasted new potatoes.

I poured this yukky beer into my tumbler at 45 degrees. The beer was cloudy, amber in color and poured a nice frothy tan head. The smell was nice whispering notes of creamy caramel and nutty goodness that makes you just want to bite it. Then you drink it and the dream is over. SOUR yuk, SOUR beer. Abbey sourness I can't stand. I will not buy again.
