Malty banana wheat aroma with some sweet booze. Clear, amber body with a medium-lasting foamy off-white head. Grainy malt flavour has hints of caramel and banana and dates. Medium body is not obnoxiously boozy. Nice blended. BigBen2120 (688), Derry, New Hampshire, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 5, 2008 750ml brown bottle (labeled Konings Hoeven Quadrupel) from The Lighthouse in Manchester. Pours an amber red body thats translucent but slightly hazy with little head to speak of. Smells fruity - apple, grape, citrus. Tastes fruity - apple, grape, citrus - with a fair amount of pith and hints of malt. Some alcohol is noticeable, but not as bad as it could. Surprisingly flat and aqueous in mouthfeel. Somewhat one dimensional. Tasty enough, but not as tasty as some of its Belgian cousins. Not that impressed with this one, I’m afraid... This may benefit from some aging, but for now, I’m just not feeling it... ukoolaid (572), Amherst, Massachusetts, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 5, 2008 Bottle as " Koningshoeven Quadrupel Trappist Ale". Pours a dark reddish color, with a thin quickly receeding off-white head. Aroma is that of any typical quad (meaning good) and the flavor was about the same. Was impressed that the alcohol was hidden quite well.
