Oct 20, 2008 Bottle from the Bottle Shop in Carrboro. Pours a deep copper with a good, tan head. Lots of brown sugar, crystal malt, and dark fruits in the nose. Very smooth and well balanced. Very sweet at times but then hoppy. Taste has a lot of spice, honey, and raisins in addition. 10% abv was barely noticeable. A very good quad and one of my favorites from Allagash.

Oct 13, 2008 Bottle. Red in color, good head. Average of aroma of fruit. Taste was different from most quads I have had, hoppy. Still matly. Sugary and fruity. The carbonation level was a little high. Not the greatest quad I have ever had but just ok compared to some others.
