Lots of sweet malt with raisins, dark fruit ,caramel, alcohol is noticable. Solid, but can’t drink a lot. Seemed more like a barleywine. undsioux7 (555), Cologne, Minnesota, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Nov 16, 2007 Pours light brown with a thin tan head. Lots of sweet malt with raisins, dark fruit,caremel, brown sugar and an alchohol bite. Lots of complexity. A great after dinner "snack" but only in small portions.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 10, 2007 750ml bottle: Deep cherry pour with a lacey tan top. The aroma is fantastic - cherry, plum and cocoa, with roasted nuts and roasted barley in the background. The depth is great and continues in the body. More sweet cherry and chocolate, in a creamy body. Finishes a bit hot, but full, with lingering bitter chocolate notes. Good stuff. robertjm (401), El Cerrito, California, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 9, 2007 Pours VERY thick tall head. Very carbonated. Dark brown in color. Nice alcoholy flavor of raisins with yeast on the palate. Trying to decide on the aroma. Not sweet, not hoppy, not bready. Thick body as expected for something with 10% alcohol. Overall a very nice beer to share with someone who appreciates a good Quad! TheKegergator (241), California, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 30, 2007 Awesome. First review in a while, and what a way to get back into it. Pours a dark amber, and forms a nice dark tan head that hangs in there. Nice malt, belgian nose. Great flavor to this brew, amazing. chicagodri (1041), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 28, 2007 I love the smell of this beer. Big sweet aroma. Very smooth, doesn’t taste like a 10% beer whatsoever. This bottle was aged for about 1 year. Would say more but I just finished an 8 hour drive and this was my reward. jake65 (1698), Williston, North Dakota, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 24, 2007 Bottle: Pours a rich mahogany color with a modest beige head. An aroma of caramel and sweetness abounds. Flavor is very rich with brown sugar, caramel, dark fruitiness, and raisons. I loved the balance here. No one flavor stands out, but its not lacking either.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 23, 2007 Bottle pours a cloudy redish carmel color with a smann dense sandy head. Big soft sweet aroma of carmel and brown sugarm. Tastes of butter honey toast and a touch of tinfoil at the end.
Thanks Jake !
