Allagash discontinued production of Double Ale in the summer of 2004. Allagash now bottle conditions all of their beers. The bottle-conditioned version of the Double Ale is called Dubbel in 12 oz crown capped bottles and Dubbel Reserve in 750 ml cork finished bottles.
Beer Ratings and Reviews:
[1] Review by staleyiv from Newnan, GA, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (2/17/2008 1:52:30 PM)
"The aroma is slightly sweet and earthy with hints of spice and some figs and creamy-like and very aromatic. The appearance is a dark brown and earthy and hard to see through when held to the light with a big, off-white head that sticks to the glass evenly. The mouthfeel is full-bodied and very complex and extremely well-balanced and very good. The flavor is very tasty and very creamy with hints of spice and figs with a wet finish that coats the pallet very nicely. Overall, not as good as the 10 but still excellent and very refreshing and very enjoyable to sip on anytime. "

"Pours hazed brown with a few bubbles as a head. Aroma has fruity berry notes, a light spiciness, and a touch of sweet malt. Nice sweet malty taste complimented by estery raisin flavor and cloves. Finishes nice and dry.

"I think I was expecting more from this beer then what was actually delivered. It poured a medium brown colour with a medium sized tan head. Rich in multiple flavors, carmel, cherries, a hint of orange and soft peppery taste. THe aroma was somewhat weak but i picked up oak. "

"Decent dubbel. Classic color, dark red-brown with a hint of orange tint. Fruity aroma, although surprisingly hoppy. I was disappointed however by the lack of head on this beer."
