look: 3.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.75

Pours a clear, dark brown color. 1/3 inch head of an off-white color. Decent retention and decent lacing. Smells of sweet malt, hint of roasted malt, slight dry hop, hops, alcohol, hint of dark citrus, and a hint of spruce. Fits the style of a Quadruple, thought it is more reminiscent of an English Old Ale. Mouth feel is sharp and clean, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of slight roasted malt, sweet malt, hops, hint of oatmeal, slight dry hop, hint of spruce, and a hint of alcohol. Overall, decent appearance, good aroma, body, and blend.

50cl into a tulip. Pours a dark bronze walnut, nice tan head required an aggressive pour, ok lacing.

The aroma is sweet and spicy, a somewhat peculiar unclassified spicing dominates.

Never more sweeter than bittersweet, a strong phenolic note defines the flavor. Difficult to identify unique aftertaste component like molasses blended with zinc although pleasant enough but becomes the defining characteristic with warmth. Less than medium bodied mouthfeel.
interesting enough

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.25 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.25

Acquired in a trade, this was poured from a 16.9 oz bottle into an Affligem chalice. Poured a reddish-brown with a small head (less than a finger) that dissipated quickly as I let it warm. Not much lacing was in evidence. Nose was some dark fruit, especially figs and caramel. Taste was very subtle for a quad with sweet caramel predominating. There were some dark fruit notes of raisin and plum. Mouthfeel was very light for a quad as was the carbonation. There was little to no alcohol warming. This was an OK offering but definitely NOT at the head of the quad class. A little too subtle for my tastes.

16.9 fl oz brown glass bottle with standard pressure cap acquired at a SoCal bottle shop for $7.99 and served into a New Belgium stem-goblet in me gaff in low altitude Los Feliz, Los Angeles, California. Expectations are high. Bottle cap reads: 5 - 12 - 9; I assume this is either the bottled-on date or something to do with the brewery's history. Bottle #741/10000. 10.5% according to my bottle (not 10% as currently listed).

Served straight from the fridge and allowed to warm over the course of consumption. Side-poured with standard vigor as no carbonation issues are anticipated.

Not paired with food.

A: Pours a 1.5 finger khaki colour head of nice cream and thickness, and very good retention (~6 minutes) for the high ABV. Body colour is a very dark caramel-brown. Non-opaque; nontransparent. No yeast particles are visible. No bubble show. Lacing is alright.

Sm: Caramel is dominant, with some raisin alongside. Bright fig is the dominant fruit; lacks the dark/stone fruit character of the really good quads I've had. Some vibrant sweet plum is there too. Complementary malts abound. I'm looking forward to this; it's an evocative aroma for a quad. Moderate in strength. Little yeast comes through. No alcohol is detectable.

T: Fig and plum. Light raisin. Medicinal grape cough syrup is strong here; bleh. Poor malt foundation. More and more medicinal the more I drink. If I could get past it, it'd be a decent quad, but I can't. It's the most medicinal beer I've ever tasted. Really quite awful, but that may be personal taste. I wouldn't call it objectively badly brewed. Too sweet. Imbalanced and horridly built - at least to my palate.

Mf: Too nectary and viscous. Syrupy. Smooth and wet. Hard to digest. Brings out the flavours - which in this case is very bad.

Dr: Pricey and really quite terrible. The grape medicine ruins it for me, but I imagine this will appeal to some. Unfortunately, it's just completely wrong for my personal taste. I'll give the brewer the benefit of the doubt on this one, but I certainly won't be having another. For what it's worth, the ABV is well hidden. I'll struggle to finish this glass (but I'll do it, damnit, I don't drain pour unless the beer is hideous [see Chelada]); this is extremely hard to drink on account of its low quality.

3.13/5  rDev -5.4%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 4 | overall: 3

Poured into the Affligem chalice where it foams up nicely and leaves plenty of lacing along the glass. Cloudy brownish color. Plenty of sudsiness in the mouthfeel. Fairly light bodied and certainly not sticky. Even a pleasant watery taste to go with all the malt.

Sweet and tasty in a dessert style. A flavor of baked apples with a few raisins. Cherries with some oxidation in the taste. Label says 10.5% ABV. Just a very oddball beer. It's like some unusual fruit fell into the tank and got fermented along with the malt, but I can't think what. The Belgian yeast dries things out. A long murky aftertaste with that woody, mineral aftertaste and a hint of dried fruit.

From the 500 ml bottle bought at Bine & Vine in San Diego. Dark sediment.

On-tap at Beachwood Brewing

Mahogany pour with a big khaki head. Kind of buttery with a light roast, some caramel, and dark fruits. A touch of brown sugar and some toasted bread. Not really a pleasant aroma. The flavor is a touch better, but not much. Still somewhat buttery with a decent enough fruit character of raisin and plum. A bit of caramel, brown sugar, and toffee sweetness. Maybe a mild malic tartness. Just a hint of toasted bread and roast. Not really very good.

A pretty darn good beer for Mason City Iowa. The taste and aroma were both a little sharp for the stated style of Quad, but it was hard to tell if that was from alcohol or hop bitterness. The mouthfeel was wonderful, just the slightest bit of carbonation. I would have given it a 5 if it were just a tich heavier. Color is maybe too light for as murky as it is. I'm seeing a lot through the edges but the middle is quite cloudy.

Just picked up a bottle of this (9/2/12) from Whole Foods. Nice artwork and a neat looking cap! Numbered 6323/10000.

Out of a Duvel tulip:

Appearance: Dark. Head faded away quick.
Nose: Another reviewer says phenolic and I'd agree. Dark fruit, malty, a little banana.
Taste: Very malty, with some hints of...chocolate? The maltiness really seems to step up as this beer warms.
Mouthfeel: Dry, not a lot of carbonation. The 10% ABV isn't very apparent.
Finish: Dry and a little bitter.

I'm not too familiar with quads yet, but I think this is pretty solid. Would probably buy again.

pint bottle? served into a duvel tulip

numbered bottle 1737/10000

pours a chestnut brown color with a lively head.

herbal scents start the nose off, followed by a malty spice phenol. not too much dark fruits as with other quads.

wow?! did i drink a hair salon in a bottle. horrible. taste like drinking nair. oh man.

right now im seriously contemplating throwing the rest of this out. i paid 7.99 for this bottle, and i seriously feel i got the shaft. its so bad i would gladly chug a corona light to get this taste out of my mouth

Reviewing this quad since it needs the reviews.

Pours a very dark cranberry red/brown with a firm and thick khaki head.

Nose is assertive fruity banana esters - smells very Belgian.

Mouthfeel is medium bodied with nice balance of malt and hops and light carbonation. Can "get" the alcohol but is not offensive.

Flavor profile is rich malt and nice bitter hops in a very nice balance. Flavors of fruit, cooked stone fruit, salted toffee and light carmel.

Finish is dry with a nice hop bitter finish that is long lasting. 07/12
