Sweet and a bit boozy. I know this is sort of in-line with the style, but I don’t love it.

Not as complex as the beers it takes inspiration from, but still passing dark ale.

Maltmaster Dave

A very nice example of a Belgian style dubel. Prune, plum, grape lead a medium spicy phenol and some late arriving cocoa. Drinks well as it warms and evoles. Long cocoa and spice finish with a delicate sweetness.
