Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailRubbel Dubbel

A Belgian Dubbel was thought to be first brewed at the Trappist monastery Westmalle as a light colored beer with an abundance of sugar and moderate alcohol. Today the style is a darker, malty brew with mild bitterness and moderate alcohol. Appearance – Dark brown malty beer that pours with a nice tan head that lingers for a nice amount of time. Aroma – Rich malt with notes of dark fruits, such as plums, raisins and figs and a slight aroma of stone fruit, like cherry. Flavor – Very mild bitterness that complements the rich malt character. Mouthfeel – Medium body a slight creamy character. Finish – Some residual sweetness.
