Allagash Dubbel Ale
I tried Allagash Dubbel Ale last night.
The beer came in a 4-pack of the short, 12-ounce bottles with twist-off caps.
It poured a light reddish-brown color with a small, short-lived head. It had a very pleasant aroma: rich, with a fruit scent that I couldn’t quite pin down further. I wonder what kind of hops they use to make this beer. The beer was dry, but not so dry as a Westmalle Dubble (which I had had not two nights before), with a bit more body. The flavor was pleasant, albeit I thought a bit less in the way of hops bitterness would have made it even more balanced. But all-in-all, a very nice beer.
