Commercial Description:
The strongest of the special beers. Its flavor is full, mild and pleasantly bitter. Quadrupel is presently available in the autumn, is bottled by the year and is perfect company for those long winter evenings.

Smells of orangy fruit, tastes bitter, like dark fruits, vaguely soapy and with a slight alcohol burn. Color is a rich clear orange with thin head. Light med. body and a bitter finish.

Beautiful, poured dark amber, reddish highlights, thick tan foam. Velvety sugary, slightly boozy mouthfeel, oh so nice. Bit warming and a bit of brandy in there too. Nose is spicy, with plums, a bit of sour and bananas. Very nice and very enjoyable.

Pours kind of ruddy dark reddish orange. Aromas of dark fruit and yeast, a bit of a rum based tropical cocktail. Flavor is fruity with a slight earthy yeast musk. Very full flavored and nice to drink. A bit of alcohol in the finish but it works. Obviously, nothing on westy, rochefort, or st bernardus, but still a very good belgian Quad.

The nose is lovingly caressed by layers of brandy soaked fruit, apples, pears, with a touch of banana. Like the other darker offerings from Koningshoeven this beer leans heavy on sweet malt and ester fruit. The alcohol is slightly less than bracing and lingers long on the finish. FIne beer for salty cheeses.

Tap at the Muddy Pig. Very fruity aroma with dark pited fruits, yeast, and alcohol. Sweet, solid mouthfeel. Very very delicious.

Dark amber with a small, but lasting off-white head. Aroma of malt, sherry, almonds and a touch of alcohol/solvents. Big flavour, rather sweet and vineous, fruit and caramel , and lasting, warming alcohol.

This is a strong beer. Not only in alcohol, but in flavor. Kind of overwhelmingly so. Flavor is fruity. Plums, Blackcurrants, Brandy, etc. Not as great as some other Quads. Nice.
