6 oz tap pour into an American Tumbler at The Lucky Monk in South Barrington, IL. 6.5% ABV, 25 IBUs.

A - Very dark brown-amber with a well-retained tan head. Spotty lace left on the glass which was a bit uncharacteristic. It was very hazy too.

S - Starts with a sweet, dark candi sugar nose with an amber malt boldness and Belgian yeast aroma. A touch of spiciness on the finish. A good Belgian Dubbel nose if a bit modest.

T - A noticeable alcohol hint I picked up on right away seemed a little out-of-place for this "lower" ABV Belgian. Good dark candi sugar sweetness and Belgian yeast hint with a mildly spicy finish.

M - Medium-bodied with a warm alcohol finish and spicy feel. Low bitterness. Mainly sweet malts.

D - A decent Belgian Dubbel attempt but could use a bit of tweaking. It's a one-pint-max beer for me though.
