| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 28, 2007 Bottle: Aroma of fruit, light malts, bubble gum coriander, pears, and a bit of alcohol. Appearance is a clear deep maroon with a medium sized tan head that lingers for a while. Taste consists of a fruity overtone, a malts are present but not overpowering. The is a definate alcohol bit to this brew as well. Palate is very carbonated, with the fruits lingering on into the aftertaste. Overall, A so-so Abt not quite measuring up to the better representations of the style. Cheers!!! keith0718 (159), Olathe, Kansas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 25, 2007 There’s more ale than Belgium in this Belgian-style ale. Very sweet; and at first, I tasted an alcoholic aftertaste, but this seemed to go away as I got further into the beer. hapjydeuce (771), Del Mar, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Mar 25, 2007 Pretty complex like a Belgian should be, but more like a dubbel, quadrupels are much more hefty I think. Id like to see it a bit darker upon the pour, but it wasnt bad, with a medium nose of malts and dark fruits. Hints of raisin, lots of sugar and alcohol finish. Good smooth palate that complements the alcohol finish brettpace (179), Northridge, California, USA

It was very good, a bit sweet for my taste. This beer put me over the edge on a long night of drinking. slimchill (777), Austin, Texas, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 21, 2007 Updated: Mar 22, 2007Bottle. Nose is intense, lots of complexity. Apple juice at first, then alcohol, followed by pears, sugar, and hops. Color is a beautiful golden amber, with a steady thin white head, beautiful lacing, and some dancing carbonation rising toward the surface. Flavor is somewhat disappointing only in comparison with the aroma. It’s much heavier on the alcohol and apples. The palate, though, is the savior of the alcoholic-heavyness. It is smooth and light, but thick and strong. henry3r (586), Wichita, Kansas, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 20, 2007 The 22 ounce bottle poured a sparkling clear beautiful reddish amber beverage with a modest sized off-white head that was mostly lasting and left good lacing on the glass. The aroma was fruity and spicy with notes of orange peel, coriander, pepper and wild cherry. This one is a very full-bodied beer with lively carbonation and a smooth, creamy texture. The flavor starts out with a medium sweetness that lasts through the long finish. The sweetness faithfully follows the aroma in composition and the finish has a nice alcohol warmth as a bonus. matty1976 (5), Seattle, Washington, USA does not count | 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 16, 2007 This is a slightly better than average quad. It has a nice ruby appearance and solid palate but over all this beer is just slightly better than its peers chadzter (94), huntsville, Alabama, USA
