The Selling Of Indulgences
Drop-In Brewing Company

This was poured into a chalice. The appearance was a ruddy burnt dark amber color with a finger’s worth of glossy foamy eggshell white of head. Sticky messy lace. The aroma had a nice blend of sweet red delicious apples, Belgian sugars, some milk chocolate, a touch of ginger and allspice and ends with some damp wood. The flavor leads with the Belgian sweet malts, apples seem to blend in some green tartness, not just the red as in the aroma. Allspice and ginger seem extremely light. Malty smooth Belgian flavored aftertaste with a semi-sticky sort of malty finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionable to sipping quality about it. ABV felt nice. Good smoothness along my tongue, spices barely hit. Overall, fairly nice Abbey Dubbel, would have again.

Screw-cap growler filled at the brewery.

First stein pours with a 1/4" tan head, over the orangey brown brew. Head is fleeting, with leggy slow-falling lace. Aroma is sweet with a touch of dark fruit.

Taste is worty to start, sweet syrup and dark fruits in the middle, closes with more of the same and a warming numbness. Mouthfeel is slickery smooth, and way too drinkable. Another good one from Drop-In.
