I hade this beer but havn't uploaded my review yet cheer's. BTW I didnt really notice spice in it. A little colder and the taste that is supposed to be plum taste like cherry to me but when it was a bit warmer I could notice plum and mine ever over flowed at all. They supposably also got a blonde at same %. I do have a herbal better alcoholic review up in the mean time. Plus I can garentie a Canadian made Russian imperial stout for an upcoming review & more cheer's.
I'd say that this one, the Dubbel, was my fave. Reminded me of Chimay Grande Reserve (Chimay Blue) quite a bit. The other two were just okay. For example, I'd take the Leffe Blond ofer Affligem Blond any day. It would be akin to taking Anchor Steam over a decent macro lager.
@elharlock That's surprising for you to say that. I just tried Leffe recently for the first time. Blond and Brun. Found both disgusting - almost like a commercial imitation. I don't know if there was something wrong with the bottles, or what. The reviews were mostly positive. Oh, well.
@chapaev36 Maybe your bottle went bad. For the record, over the last year since I made that post, I've actually grown to love Affligem Blond more than Leffe Blond.
P.S. Mine did NOT over flow,so what the fuck happened?

Affligem is not a Trappist Ale, but it is an Abbey Ale. All Trappist beers are Abbey beers, however not all Abbey beers are Trappist.

@elharlock uh, most German or west Slavic dark lagers , have quite a bit of carbonation, so have to open the bottle cap slowly
