Jan 17, 2009 tart and fruity. sweet, nose of figs, almost wine like quality. Alcohol. Aroma almost reminds me of anise licorice. Taste is very sweet, but balanced with tart fruitiness. Does get a little old after a while. There is an astringent characteristic from the alcohol.

Jan 10, 2009 Huge thanks to Keith for bringing to the Ale Atlanta tasting. I’ve been wanting to try it for a long time, but a combination of my cheapness and other beers got in the way. Amber color. Sweetish. A hint of alcohol. Malty. Very nice.

Jan 6, 2009 Thanks to my wife for letting me rate her beer. Pours amber with a foamy white head. Aroma is cherries, hops and a mild sweetness. Flavor is bitter and grassy with a substantial alcohol kick. Mouthfeel is fairly light.

Dec 29, 2008 Yes, its sugary sweet and should be so because its a Quad. But enjoyable? Well if you love sweet sweet Belgians, this is your beer. Pure malt sugariness, you can taste the kandi sugar in every sip. Pours a cloudy copper with minimal white head that accumulates later. Flavor is figs, raisins, prunes, dates. Exactly what a Belgian Triple should be, and being a Quad, it is even more so. But for me, this just wasn’t my beer.

Dec 19, 2008 Pours a murky apricot colour with a puffy off white head. The aroma is of candied fruits, jagery, slightly tart yeast notes, cherry, and mild peppery spice. The flavour is aromatic and complex, with dark fruits, tart yeast, caramel, oak? and dry aromatic malts. The hops are herbal, not grassy. The finish is long, spicy, aromatic and bone dry. I appreciate that the beer is not overly sweet and that it is balanced and dry.

Dec 19, 2008 Like Westvleteren 12 toned down. Not quite as flavorful or warming as Westy. However this is a rich, complex, just plain good beer. Lots of candi sugar, dark fruits, and Belgian yeast. It is just about everything you could ask for.
