Commercial Description:
Urthel Samaranth 12 Quadrium Ale is a malty, full-bodied special Ale, brewed in a way that only Belgian Brewers can. Huge mouthfeel and layers and levels of flavor make Urthel Samaranth the perfect beer for the end of a meal or at the finish of a special day. And when you want something different, Urthel Samaranth 12 Quadrium Ale is with its fine bitterness, definitely something different... Try it! First brewed at Van Steenberge, now brewed at Koningshoeven - La Trappe brewery.

This is a nice Belgian. I have been shying away from Belgians recently, but this one really proved to be a delicious beer.

Draught at Old Capitol Brew Works & Public House in Iowa City, IA. Hazy golden brown color with a thick creamy off white head that laced the side of the wide mouthed Belgian glass it was served in. Attractive aroma of cotton candy, flowery hops, green apple, and pineapple. Sweet and sticky palate, smooth and full bodied. Tasted of apple, malty caramel, and flowery hops with a warm splash of alcohol at the end. It tasted less like alcohol than I would have expected at 11.5%. Delicious.

On tap at Barley John’s. Aromas are of alcohol, dark fruits, and candy canes, or lollipops. Warm flavors of banana bread and apple crisp. Alcohol shouts a loud hello in the finish.

Nice Belgian Strong on draft. Some cloves and bananas. Big head. Laced well. Hides the alcohol very well.

Corked bottle. Poured hazy copper color with an average frothy off-white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate spicy malty aroma. Medium body with a slick texture. Medium balanced flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. Solid drinkable complex beer.

Bottle. Clear deep amber, almost copper colour. Small white head. Potent sugar cane aroma with some spiciness. sweet flavours, good fruitiness, present alc, almost rummy. Fizzy and full-bodied. A barley wine that has yet to reach some more complexity.

Bought @ Steilacoom Wine and Brew. On tap. This beer is a classic! I am suprised at the low score? I think this quad is much lighter and more balanced between the dry and sweet than most. The candied sugars are lighter and the flavors are more subtle, but this brewery can flex its muscles without many knowing that this bad boy is 11.5%. A wonderful beer!
