Gamborg Belgian Dubbel

◎ Aussehen

Deep mahogany to dark brown, translucent and unfiltered with visible suspended yeast particles creating a soft haze. A dense, caramel-colored head builds readily and clings to the glass with strong lacing. Carbonation is moderate and persistent, revealing a full-bodied presence.

◌ Aroma

Complex malt-driven nose with prominent roasted chocolate and caramel notes from six varieties of malt layered beneath. Sweet orange peel and a subtle spice emerge on the second nosing, alongside dark dried fruit esters typical of Belgian yeast. The alcohol warms without harshness, adding a gentle boozy undertone.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with rich malt sweetness and deep roasted chocolate character, reinforced by the dark candy sugar. Orange zest and spice notes weave through the mid-palate, contributing fruity complexity alongside a soft, rounded body. Bitterness is restrained at 25 IBU, allowing the malt sweetness and warming alcohol to dominate while maintaining balance.

◑ Abgang

The finish is fresh and clean despite the warming alcohol, with lingering caramel sweetness and a gentle roasted undertone. Aftertaste remains smooth and unobtrusive, leaving a subtle fruitiness and cocoa whisper.
