Bottle from Monument in Concord, CA. Poured a nice brown color with limited head. Had a sweet aroma. Tasted of dark fruits and toffee. I was quite impressed with this beer. I could definately make this a regular drinker.

Dark orange with a short creamy head. Flavors were that of pitted fruits and overall not too malty. Very strong and slightly bitter. Nice quad.

Cloudy orange, surprisingly small head. Sweet, yeasty aroma, with a bit of wineyness, too. Nicely smooth, with a mix of winey, spicey, and yeasty flavors. Some nice hoppiness in the finish. Enjoyable brew.

shared 750ml... pours a deep brownish color with a bit of off white head. sweet, sugar filled aroma with some yeast and spice as well. nice and lively palate... medium body with most activity up front and on top. a good amount of sugar and sweet malt up front... nice strong finish with some alcohol and a bit of caramel. overall a nice Belgian style quad from Allagash..

This was very smooth due to the four malts used in the brewing. The alcohol taste was marred by the hops as well. This was all very balanced and tasted fantastic. Wonderful beer that exceeded my expectations.

Bottle, sampled at Woodshop Quad. Pours a hazy amber-brown with an off-white head. Sweet and sharp aroma, of malt, herbs, and dark fruits. Sweet-sharp taste, of malt, honey, pine, and dark fruits. Lingering sweetness. Nice.

Tasted 1/28/09. 750ml bottle. Hazy with a brown bronze hue. Webbed ring of white head. Tart apple estery aromas. Sweet toffee and woody. Rock candy note. Full bodied and sticky sweet. Flavors of fudge and toast. Smooth palate. Medium malts with a sticky flavor. Tangy yeast and faint hops. Holding steady!

Draught at The Reef. Amber with a small head that leaves a sllick of foam. Malty brown sugar aroma with some alcohol and grape-like fruitiness. Sweet caramel, alcohol, and alcoholic fruit flavors. Dries out just enough in the finish. Full bodied and a bit hot in the mouth. This was alright, but I just couldn’t shake the feeling that the only thing interesting about it was the high gravity; take that away and there wasn’t much going on.
