Brew: redbeard - belgian dubbel'ish
Date: 7/7/08
Beer info: Bottled in brown 750ml bottle, gold cap "11"
Sampling notes:
Served chilled in goblet. Pours a hazy sort of pale brown with a collar of white foam. Get yeasty bread straightup on the nose, slightly sulfury, some caramelly malt, and spicy citric hops cutting through it all. Carbonation is soft, very much on the low side, body is particularly lean for a Belgian-style, has a stickiness about it that gives an overall sweet impression with a reasonably sharp hop bitterness taking the edge off it. Mildly fruity body, watered down raspbery cordial!? yeah maybe not, some malt caramel and bread, a touch of citrusy hops. Finishes dry, reasonably clean. Not too sure if you could really call this a dubbel, seems more like some sort of amber Czech pils hybrid. Interesting and quite enjoyable anyway, thanks Redbeard!
