Batch 160 Dubbel tasting notes

Cellar temp

Pours clear brown, heavy orange tint, soda-pop fizz tan color falls away immediately

Aroma pick up alcohol at first, sweet ripe fruit, caramel

Mouthfeel moderate body, bright carb, not much at end

Flavor ripe tropical fruit, slight roast, bitter at end

Finishes pretty warm, very light coating, hop bitterness without flavor

Overall, forgot the adjunct for head retention (oats or flaked wheat), could reduce the abv and ibu some, could use more roast.  Very drinkable, but disappointing with no head.  Another month in the bottle wouldn't hurt, either.
