Westmalle Trappist Dubbel
SKU: 07748
$5.99
Westmalle’s dark, red-brown Trappist beer, the Dubbel (7%), features a rich and complex flavour thanks to secondary fermentation in the bottle. The Dubbel is characterized by notes of caramel, malt and fruity esters reminiscent of ripe banana. The first taste of Westmalle Dubbel is a creamy thick head of foam. When finished, the beer leaves lacework traces behind in the glass, but the most memorable part of this balanced Trappist beer with soft mouthfeel is undoubtedly the long, dry finish.

A classic Belgian dubbel, this is a world-class, balanced brew that offers loads of rich, malty characteristics-brown bread, caramel, roasted grain-framed by attractive notes of raisin, dried fig, cinnamon, light toffee and burnt sugar. Those notes continue through to the full, creamy palate, along with hints of bananas foster, malted milk balls and dried black cherry. Medium carbonation helps to lift the palate and lend snap to the close, while a pleasant warmth unfolds alongside lingering hints of bittersweet cocoa powder and clove. Delicious now, but this can also age well for 2-3 years from bottling (refer to product label).
