Brasserie Lefebvre Abbaye de Floreffe Double Abbey Dubbel at 6.3% ABV ($5.24 from Crowfoot Liquor Okotoks)
Pours clear amber-brown with cola red highlights, a short and short-lived light tan head diminishing rapidly to a thin skim, no lacing. Nose is muted, brown sugar and dark fruit. Taste is moderate candi sugar sweetness, slight sour/tart, low spice. Light to medium body, low sustained carbonation, with an off-dry mild bitter lingering finish.
Fairly boring abbey dubbel, with both nose and flavour on the muted side. Appearance is also disappointing, with the short-lived short head and absence of lacing. Not unpleasant, but there are lots of better alternatives out there.
