Dark redish brown color with a large foamy head. Malty aroma with hints of plum and candi sugar. Dry mouthfeel with alot of fruitiness. Hints of raisins and candy sweetness. Fairly dry and hoppy finish. Prickly carbonation. Alcohol is well concealed. Not too shaby.

This one was pretty cool. Wasnt exactally what I was expecting and stuff but it was still fun to drink. Copper amber with a white medium lasting head. Malty and overall pretty good.

Boutip (3294) - Gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - MAR 13, 2006
Bottle: Poured a clear amber color ale with a huge beige foamy head with excellent retention. Aroma of sweet malt, cookie dough with some alcohol hint is pretty interesting but I could have done without the alcohol hint. Taste is a bit sweeter then expected with lots of cookie dough and some dry raisins. I would have loved for this beer to have more attenuated sugars and a fruitier aroma à la Rocherfort 10 (I can’t really have an ABT without comparing it to the best). Body is above average but could have been more full and alcohol could be more hidden. Very interesting beer from Allagash but cannot honestly say that it compared to the world bests.

Wow.Number 200 for me.This beer pours a dark amber with a thick fluffy head.The head dissipates while drinking, but stays laced on the top and clinging to the sides of the glass.Heavy fruit and nut flavors.The alcohol is present but not overpowering.Some spiciness going down with some bitterness as the finish.

adnielsen (3106) - Denver, Colorado, USA - DEC 24, 2011
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.
