Rich and Malty
A malty Dubbel-style amber beer with rich, deep and bittersweet flavours.
For Grimbergen Double Ambrée, hints of caramel, dried plums and hops mix with a deep maltiness featuring lots of caramelized notes. The overall sensation is bittersweet, with aromas dominated by sweet ripe fruits.

Pretty good Dubbel. I had a few of these on a Viking cruise ship. Served in a tulip glass but way too cold to evaluate a head. Hazy mahogany brown color with some light coming through and not much lacing. Aroma and taste included some maltiness, dark fruit, and Belgian spices/yeastiness. The aroma and taste were fairly subdued. Mouthfeel was fairly rich and malty. I have no problem ordering more during the last days of this cruise.

On tap in Toulouse. Pours brown with off white head. Body is full and slightly crisp. Taste is of caramel malt, dark fruit, brown sugar and some spices. Long semi dry finish.
