Pours cloudy red/brown color, with a filmy white head that leaves behind pretty good lacing. A few bubbles constantly rise to the top.
Smell is very fruity, but with a subtle hop balance. No real Belgian in the aroma.
Taste is very light, with boozy kick. Not bad, just nothing there, except alcohol, which soon becomes obtrusive.
Mouthfeel is very thin, nothing like the style.
Drinkability is terrible, it's like washing down a shot of vodka with a Killian's.
Overall, avoid.

Minus the barrel aging, this already a pretty good dubbel. Barrels add just the right amount, woody, slightly sour, smoky. Aroma is yeasty, herbal, taste brings in some molasses sweetness. This would probably be a decent dubbel without the aging, so the added accents are a nice touch.
