Clear dark amber with a pleasing light tan head. The aroma is loaded with cyanide, umm I mean almonds. Also good bits of vanilla. The flavor is full of oak and bourbon, so much so that the yeasty fruitiness that makes a Quad a quad is almost non-existent. Smooth creamy mouthfeel. Not bad but the barrelness overtakes the belgianess.

Sep 7, 2008 Raspberry, bourbon, alcohol, oak aroma. Reddish orange with a thin head with swirls in the middle, bubbly on the outside, little lacing. Effervescent bubbliness, warming alcohol feel like whiskey in the mouth, a bit candyish, but fades out quick after the alcohol taste. Not bad, a bit overdone with the bourbon overpowering the quad subtelty.

Sep 7, 2008 Bottle from VA. Clear red amber with a fizzy tan head. Big bourbon, vanilla, caramel, and oak aroma and taste with a warming alcoholic taste. Excellent.

Sep 5, 2008 Shared by toncatcher. Thanks Dennis. Very good BA quad. Love the style, love that the BA made the quad better.

Aug 29, 2008 Bottle from kmweaver on 8/16/08. Thanks Ken! Tried at PP bottle shop with Sean. Amber color. Big alcohol nose and burn in the taste. The burn settles down quickly, as it seemed to be much stronger when the bottle is opened (i.e let it breathe before drinking). Sweetish. Medium drinkability. Oaky aroma initially but fades to maltiness. Low bitterness.

Aug 26, 2008 Bomber poured a clear copper with a small lingering amber head. Aromas of bourbon, oak, vanilla, toffee, fruittiness and light carmel. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of bourbon, oak, vanilla, toffee and light fruittiness with a smooth lingering lightly sweet finish.
Kinda disapointed in this one, not as good as Insanity or Heresy.
