3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle @ home with Jetson. Batch 24. Pretty clear, copper orange appearance with a fluffy, tan head. Carbonated, spicy Belgian yeasty, toasty caramel malty, mild brown sugar aroma. Fairly rich candy sugar, brown sugar, toasty caramel malty, mild toffee, slightly fruity flavor. Really more like a Belgian Strong Ale. Easy to drink but not what I would usually consider a Quadrupel.

750ml bottle. Pours a clear amber with a white head.
Smells of brown sugars, and malt, hops and yeast.
Tastes of a heavy sweetness. Body is medium. Texture is syrupy. Carbonation is medium but soft. Finish is a tingly alcoholic sensation.
Very drinkable.

So we had this from the bottle at a tasting and as stated: Four means four malts, four yeasts and four hops were used at four different times. Being ~10%, I can say that it would need these different additions to create the taste. Tho I didn’t rate this as high as the others I tasted, it did have a great dark almost porter characterstic. Carmel and chocolate to a roasted note. Hazy with a rocky, off-white head that lasted for the glass. Apple and honey notes also present.

11/29/11. 750mL bottle cracking in honor of finishing my lecture recital today! Not necessarily a special bottle, but I’ve never bought this bottle because it is a bit pricey for me... so here we go! Hazy light brown pour with a nice, thick tan head that cuts in half but sticks and laces quite a bit in big, thick sheets. Somewhat plain aroma but there’s definite metallic aspects, a touch of sweetness, and a nice small dose or roast. Sweet, burnt caramel flavors at first followed by another metallic dose, and a little bit of roast. Lingering metallic aspects, sweet caramels, and a solid dose of yeastiness as well. Not too shabby!
3.8 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Aroma of clove and banana. Pours red with a sticky head. Tastes of alacohol, clove, banana and spices. Delicious but in moderation (hic).
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
750 bottle, tasted blind.
Medium amber, light lace.
Caramel and fruit nose. Rather bland. A bit of hop and phenols.
Fruity, hoppy, some orange and raisin.
Rather light, smooth. Perfectly fine, though kind of boring.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
a corked caged bottle. Color is a deep rust with heavy head and good lacing The aroma is a mix of light fruits like apple and dark fruits like fig. Also a little honey comb candy int here. Taste starts a little hops and candy fruit yeast. A quick touch of booze taste. Washed away by a fine carbonation. A lighter bodied quad. Very very good
