Apr 25, 2008 Dynamic aroma - switching between sweet and a crisp floral. Solid amber appearance with little carbonation and a quickly dissipating white head. Complex flavor that starts heavy on sweet malt and quietly moves to a combination of Ouzo (black licorice) and single malt whiskey. Full bodied, you will notice the 10% abv on the long, sticky finish of this brew.

Apr 19, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of pretty rich, caramel malt with a Belgian twang, not overly complex. Flavor brings in a bunch of fruitiness, apricot, mango, raisin as it warms more. Again, not overly complex, but actually for me not as sweet as i expected. That said, the mouthfeel did start to wear on me toward the end of the glass, that’s where the syrupiness kicks in. Overall though, pretty solid.

Apr 19, 2008 Bottle. Pours brown with a small light tan head. Aroma of Belgian yeast, not much fruit in the aroma. Flavor was of candy sugar, raisin, molasses, some spices. Sweet but not too sweet. Not a great quad, but a good beer nonetheless.

Apr 19, 2008 honey colored beer with an off white ring for a head. really sweet aroma... smells of honey, brown sugar, fruit/bananas, wood and booze. the palate is quite sweet and hot and not really worth sipping half a glass or so. the flavor is the same as the aroma with a little spiciness and a dry yeasty finish. it really lacks any personality. medium body with a rather sticky mouth feel. this does however, make a good glaze for caramelized pears...

As I recall, this was an excellent brew. Slighlty malty and sweet with a great kick.

Apr 16, 2008 Updated: Jul 15, 2008Bottle. Amber pour, surprisingly clear and with a minimal head. Nice lacing, though. Dried fruits (apricots and strawberries), banana, malt, burnt sugar on the nose. A little dried ginger. Sweet palate (banana pancakes!) with hot alcohol burn. Really not my favorite, but worked well for the quick buzz I was hoping for tonight. That’s sad if that’s all I can say about a quadrupel, particularly from Avery. A value for the price, but there are certainly better quads out there.

Apr 16, 2008 (Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm, 12 April 2008) Reddish amber colour with frothy, beige head. Malty nose with dried fruit, caramel and floral notes of roses. Malty taste with notes of dried fruit, strawberries and red-currant. Full body, really sweet. Nicely balanced and tasty, maybe slightly too sweet, but still a nice beer.

Apr 15, 2008 Pours a clear copper color with a medium white head. Malty, yeasty aroma with some ripe fruits and sugar. Flavor is also fruity and sweet, with a hint of spice near the end. Average bodied. Good, but not great.
