Jun 6, 2008 Amber in color with a big beige head. Sweet smells of caramel, fruits in particular apricot, and toffee. Taste is the same as the smells. You can definetly feel the alcohol. Fuller bodied. Gets dryer at the bottom of glass.

Jun 5, 2008 Objectively speaking:
An honourable attempt at a quadruple that did not feel as successful as their Saison.
I like:
Appealing toasty/nutty/vanilla nose. Controlled alcohol level. Convincing mouthfeel.
I dislike:
A bit one-dimensional for a quad. Its toasty, bready, caramelly palate quickly becomes dry and the fruity depth is not very developed. Minimal head.

Jun 4, 2008 2008-05-31. Brown body, modest creamy beige head. Sweet sugary malt in the aroma, good amount of alcohol presence. (7+) Sweet up front in the flavour, brown sugars, caramel turns tangy in the finish. (8+) Smooth medium palate. (3+) Touch simple and raw in places but I really enjoyed this one. Bottle, Mondial, Montreal, 3T<P> If Jeremy were here he’d write that down..." - DougShoemaker quoting Radek

Jun 1, 2008 Pour is dirty brown orange with a creamy off white head, long lasting. Very strong aroma of heavy vanilla, brown sugar, rich caramel toffee, and dark fruits. Very aromatic. I enjoyed the flavor of this. I haven’t put this up against other quads, but I have a gut feeling it would hold its own. Alcohol is noticable, but it isn’t over the top. Good stuff and IMO underrated within the style.

May 31, 2008 This beer pours a cloudy amber with a large white head. the aromas are a little more hoppy than I would’ve expected. The flavor is not though. This is weak for a quad/abt but it was pleasant. I liked it ok, but it could’ve been so much more! Cheers!

May 31, 2008 (Dégusté avec french tickler au mondial) Biere de couleur rousse quelque peut brumeuse avec un collet moyennement collant. Odeur de pouding chomeur, agrumes, fruité, sucré, oranges, caramel et apricot. Gout salé, fruits, coté bonbon et caramel. Vraiment une bonne biere!

May 30, 2008 Pour is a dark brown with a very large tan head. Aroma is nice with some caramel, spice and a bit of earthyness. Flavor is very sweet with some rye bread and candi sugar. Then the eye watering alcohol hits you. It does not leave a burn but you deffinatly know its there. Just an ok quad and some age would do it wonders. All of the smokestack beers were very good but this is probably the one i liked the least.
