1L howler from Sherbrooke Liquor store - apparently this was supposed to be a Dubbel, but fell a bit short in the ABV department, so 'malty brown' in Flemish it is. The pedant in me loves these guys.
This beer pours a clear, dark bronzed amber colour, with four fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly tan head, which leaves some decent Swiss cheese pattern lace around the glass as it slowly subsides.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, a bruised pome fruitiness, some blended earthy spice, and very tame leafy, musty, and herbal hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery cereal malt, baked red apples, overripe Bartlett pears, some estery yeasty notes, and more well-understated leafy, herbal, and floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-coating frothiness, the body a solid medium weight, and generally smooth, with a wee airy creaminess evolving as things warm up a tad around here. It finishes off-dry, the malt and frooty notes presiding.
Overall - this does indeed come across as very much like a Dubbel, if a lighter version of the style, which does have a lot in common with what I have listed it as on BA. Described as a 'one-off' by the brewery itself, with a little tweaking, it could certainly become a mainstay, IMHO.
