The Westmalle Dubbel is something you have got to try if you have already had the less expensive Chimay Red. This Abbey Dubbel pours a dark reddish brown hue with a small off white head. It reminds me a great deal of other Abbey Dubbels just by appearance but the greatness of this brew is realised when the aroma is sampled. There is a lot of stuff going on with this beer: it is flowery, fruity, a good mixture of malts. The taste is even better. I can pick out banana, raisins, chocolate, plums, and other dark fruits. This is a very good beer and also a good step up from the Chimay line.
