650ml bomber, shared with VeloVampire - pours a clear but slightly hazy ruby shade with a small white head. Aroma is very fruity, with a lot of caramel sweet malt, a quite a pronounced hop character. Very hoppy for a Quad. Flavour is very sweet, though balanced, full of Belgian candy sugar, dark fruit, toffee. The finish is mildly hoppy, mildly bitter. Almost has a barley wine character more than a Quad. Not nearly as yeasty as a Belgian Quad. Booziness becomes more apparent as the glass warms but is otherwise very well hidden. Unique.

Jul 22, 2008 This is a wickedly awesome beer, that had a euphoric effect on me that has captivated me every since the last swallow. For a strong beer the flavor was anything but overwhelming, washing down clean with little in the way of a alcoholic aftertaste. The real beauty of this beer is the feeling in the belly, which I can only compare to cognac. This is best suited for an afterdinner drink, that is sipped instead of gulped. Under the wrong circumstances I am certain this beer would be too much to handle, but in the correct time and place - a small slice of heaven. Cheers.

Jul 19, 2008 22 oz bottle. Pours amber with a medium white head that dissolves fairly quickly. Aroma is heavily bubble gum and bananas. Flavor is sweet, centrally the yeasty flavors of bubble gum, banana, apple, with hops adding some citrus and bitterness. A bit of caramel flavor and alcohol in there. Carbonation is a bit on the flat side.

Pours a nice looking amber with beige head. Aroma is pretty complex, all I can say it is spicey and malty, with alcohol aroma. Flavor is very much the same pluse sweet. Mouth feel is full body, heavy, somewhat creamy smooth with med. carbonation....Over all I really like this one.....
