Belgian Dubbel 6.5 º 21 IBU

Brouwerij Poort

This Belgian Dubbel presents a refined interplay between traditional monastic depth and a refreshing, modern edge. A base of rich, toasted malts evokes notes of caramelized sugar and dark chocolate, seamlessly layered with characteristic esters of sun-dried raisins and plums. The subtle oak aging introduces a delicate whisper of vanilla and a faint, woody structure that complements the spicy, peppery phenols of the Belgian yeast. Despite its initial malty sweetness, the profile maintains a fresh, approachable character, finishing with a graceful dryness and a lingering warmth that highlights the complexity of the wood-matured grain bill.

Appearance. Deep copper to dark amber with distinct reddish hues (14-17 SRM). Clear clarity. Large, dense, creamy off-white head with excellent retention and lacing.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Rich malt presence featuring notes of caramelized sugar, toast, and a hint of cocoa. Prominent dark fruit esters resembling raisins and dried plums. Subtle spicy, peppery yeast phenols. Faint, sweet vanilla and light woodiness from the oak aging. No hop aroma.

Taste. Initial impression of malty sweetness with flavors of caramel, toasted bread, and dark fruits. Medium-low bitterness provides just enough balance to the malt-forward profile. Yeast-derived spiciness and dark fruit esters add complexity. Subtle oak influence emerges mid-palate with light tannins and vanilla. Finishes moderately dry with a lingering malty and spicy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Medium-high carbonation provides a lively, refreshing lift. Very low, well-integrated alcohol warmth. Minimal wood-derived astringency.
