Impression:
It definitely hit the spot, though the mouthfeel was more on the watery side than I would've liked. The beer, as with the style, is fairly malt-forward, so I tasted a lot of delicious malty flavors like toffee, caramel, and brown sugar. I got hints of raisins here and there, but it wasn't as substantial of a flavor as I would've preferred. It also had a nice, mellow noble hops character to it, nice and earthy/herbal, which complemented the malt flavors very well. It wasn't my favorite Belgian dubbel, but it's a pretty solid showing, and I'd definitely get it again.
Cheers!
