Thanks to biegaman for the bottle. 2008 vintage.

Deep brown colour, near black, minimal off white head, some lacing on the glass. Smell is spicy, dark fruit, alcohol, malt, black liquorice, toffee, brown sugar, candy fig/fruit and jammy notes in the nose. Taste is of overripe fruit, caramel, dark sugars, candy, spicy, the complexity of this is mindblowing, solid malt, alcohol reveals itself every so often. Subtle carbonation, lush and rich feel, full body, solid stuff. Top notch brew, excellent slow sipper, superb.

Pours black with a fading tan head.
Nose shows chocolate, spiced figs, prunes, caramel, burnt brown sugar, candi sugar. Lovely.
More burnt sugar as a flavours along with some roasted malt, bready malt and spices.
Could use a more syrupy body and creamier carbonation.

Completely not what I expected going in. I've had plenty of Belgian quads, but this is so much different. It has the typical raisin/plum taste and smell, but this one is so much more. There's a hint of a stout as well - coffee and dark roasted malt. Also, there's a nice oaken flavor to it. I would call this one very complex - so many different things to taste in this beer and the aroma is very complex as well. I very much like this beer.
