The strongest of the special beers. Its flavor is full, mild and pleasantly bitter. Quadrupel is presently available in the autumn, is bottled by the year and is perfect company for those long winter evenings.

750ml - cork says 26/07 Koningshoeven label - Appealing aroma is fruity with raisins and cherry. Slight spice with even a little chocolate sneaking in. Flavor is sweet cherry and raisin with a yeasty spice finish. Palate is syrupy and tangy. Hides alcohol well, but is warming. A pretty tasty brew, but not very complex.

Bottled. Dark reddish brown with a cream colored head. Aroma of yeasts, malts, cherry and raisin. Flavors of malt, cherry and alcohol permeates. A very pleasing and well balanced quad. I will be buying more of this.

2008 bottle. Colour is between amber and reddish. Aroma is a bit like too old fruits and earth at first, but after a while (while bear warms and breaths a bit) it gets better. Flavor is well balanced and full, with taste of alcohol and hints of fruits.

Bottle. Clear ruby colored body, with a small white head. Aroma is candy sugar, spices and alcohol. Flavor is candy sugar, malt and lots of alcohol. The alcohol is to penetrating for me.

Pours a cloudy ruby color with 3 fingers of light brown head. Aroma is malt, bread, candi-sugars, belgian yeasts and spices. Flavor is belgian yeasts, candi sugars, dark fruits, bread. Very active carbonation with tiny bubbles tingle giving this a nice mouthfeel. Decent quad, a little hot and harsh but I still enjoyed this one.

The View Amber color beer topped with nice with foam coating. The fine bubbles are supporting the foam in a nice way. The beer has probably filtered because it very clear. The smell Rose flowers and fresh baked bread, sweet herbs and citrus Taste Spicy start rather sweet warm moth feeling because of the alcohol, nice bitter that once the beer has been swallowed is long and nice.
