Good God is Belgium awesome! The beers are fantastic! Visting Trappist breweries cannot be done in one day. We spent one day for each Trappist brewery... and man did we love it!
Well, now that that has been said... here we have Sterkens Dubbel. What crap. All this beer represents is a Belgian macro-style beer.
We were just about to head out of Belgium, when i stumbled across this beer at a tiny food mart. The aroma is just a simple malt profile with a tiny bit of yeast and fruit. The flavor is incredibly thin. I am overwhelmed with plastic and a sense that I am drinking a watered down beer. There is even a slight metallic sting... oxidation due to the lack of bottle conditioning. What a waste of a beer.
It saddens me that this beer is out of Belgium. Belgian beers are like no other beers you can have. However... skip this one.
