The beer pours and cremy amber color with a head thats white, but dies quickly. The aroma is sweet with a hint of pepper or spice. Very sweet on the palate with honey goodness and a hint of rum. Alcohol isn't as present as one would expect for the alcohol content.

Hade en ganska intetsägande doft, lett syrlig smak, körsbärssöt, men inte mer. Det känns nästan som den borde vara bättre. Dålig batch??
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
This beer went down remarkably smooth for a belgian quad. It had all the typical characteristics....roasted fruit, alcohol, yeast, etc....from start to finish, but it didnt possess anything that made it stand out above the others....not bad though.

Bottle. 25.4 oz. Pours amber with a thick tan head. Aroma of fig, raisins, barley, roasted malts, and earth. Full bodied with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Good quad.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Clear amber body with very little of the white head that does not stick around, possibly due to alc. content. Sugary sweet aroma with some cloves that have been more apparent in other bottles and this one had DMS(corn)vegetal aromas which I also do not remember from past bottles. There is a little maltiness that comes around after it warms. This is the first time I've actually rated this beer,and I must say, it is not one of the better samples I've had, but I'll keep that in mind in this rating. Flavor is about the same as the aroma; Sugary sweet at first, cloves, then hops come around at the end with alcohol flavors, but overall well balanced in the finish. Aftertaste is clean with some hop flavor and bitterness. The alcohol is warming, not hot at 10% ABV and the carbonation is moderate for a "Belgian" style beer of medium body. Not terribly complex but dangerously drinkable. I know this beer is better than the bottle I've just had so I'll adjust my rating according to both this bottle and my memory of what I've had in the past.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Dark amber color, medium off-white head. Dark fruits, yeast and brown sugar in the aroma. Some pear, cherry, molasses, a hint of pine and yeasty esters. Pretty rough around the edges, finish is a little hot.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Nice subtly sweet aroma. Good carmally red brown hued clear liquid with a nice persistand white foam head. Sweet nutty and somewhat fruit ish flavor through the aftertaste. Nice alcohol warmness. Good texture. Very nice belgian style ale. A bit pricey Mine was $6 for a 22oz. bottle.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
22 oz. Brown bomber bottle. Pours out the color of dark Belgian Candi sugar. No head to speak of, but forms a lasting lace on the sides of the glass. Aromas of Candi sugar, pepper, mascerated cherries, and yeast. Not much in the way of hops aromas or taste in here, gang. Alcoholic tasting. Very warming to the stomach as well. Hides it's 10% ABV very well. Finishes sweet, with an alcoholic burn.
