12 oz single from The Charleston Beer Exchange, Charleston, SC, USA.
Solid garnet pour with a standard (typical) Dubbel cloudiness but a little more red color than the traditional dirty brown. Thin foam and some sticky lace. I must admit I wasn’t expecting a “Dubbel” or any Belgian influence on the Smutty Winter offering.
Very sweet with some sour notes. Pretty interesting. Not a traditional Dubbel by any means, but strangely tasty. A mix of grapefruit and candy sugar. Very nice.
Moreish, this gets better with warmth.
I dunno. STRANGE BEER.
