October 19, 2005 - #102 of 365

Brewer: Brouwerij van Steenberge (Ertvelde, Belgium)
Beer: Double Bornem
Style: Abbey Dubbel
abv: 8%

Background: Another from that six-pack of bad Belgians.

Appearance: Pours brown with a large off-white head. I swear I saw one bubble dancing above the rest as though suspended from a spider’s web. The weirdest thing I’ve ever seen.

Aroma: Yeasty and bready, with dark fruits like raisins and prunes. Kind of hot on the nose.

Flavor: Harsh carbonation makes it hard to distinguish flavors. Some dark fruit. The finish is sweet and yeasty.

Notes: Eh.

Rating: 3 out of 5


My batteries are dead again.
