A Belgian Dubbel without the deep dark chocolate maltiness, La Petite Orange is rich with caramel sweetness and a full body that hides the 6.1% ABV very well.
A simple sipper that evokes warm summery ;memories with every sip, yet fits perfectly into the colder month's standard brewing repertoire.
Wyeast Trappist High Gravity Y3787 is a great alternative yeast for this kit; it ferments a bit drier with a rich ester profile, malty palate, and has a high alcohol tolerance.
Very good, light flavor. I added crystalized orange during secondary fermentation which came through. Only downside is that alcohol content after fermentation is lower than specified. I predicted this based on the original gravity before it went into the fermenter. I've noticed this on several brewing kits I've got from Northern Brewer.

La Petite Orange
Easy to make. Great aroma. Added sweet orange peel and coriander to the boil.
Color was orange. Got the abv. 6.0. Bottled 7-11-22. Will try one in another week or two.

EXCELLENT BEER!
This kit made an excellent Belgian Dubbel. Has all the makings of a trappist monk ale. Dry notes where needed and sweet notes make for a refreshing beer.
