Jul 19, 2008 Dark pour with very small brown head. Nose of dried fruit. Flavor is rather sweet, cross between a barley wine flavor and quad. A lot of raisins, prunes and plum. Body looks big, but more on the lighter side. Hops are present, just enough to keep the sweetness in check.

Jul 18, 2008 Updated: Jul 22, 2008Not quite what I was expecting from having other quads. Dark, rich brown, almost the color of a stout or porter. The raisins really come through in the nose. The flavor is belgian up front, followed by some bitter twang, then ending with a dark fruity flavor, reminiscent of some Nogne brews I’ve had. Surprisingly light bodied for its full flavor, it is full of effervescence. Still, maybe its summer, but its a bit to rich for my blood.

The flavor was warming with the dark fruit sweetness and caramel.This brew was complex but blended well letting me enjoy the flavors with out one being dominant. Finished of warming and sweet.

Jul 15, 2008 Pours an almost black brown with tan head. Aroma is dominated by dark fruit- fruity malt, apple, raisin, plum, apricot, peach, and grape all evident. Flavor follows suit from odor with dark fruit again clearly present. Palate is thick and rich with some definite creamyness- sweet finish. Really tasty beer.

Jul 14, 2008 Sweet malt, fruity raisin notes, nicley aromatic. Eye catching dark brown to deep purple color, no "smoke on the water" here. Semi-sweet sugary flavor. Somewhat creamy mouthfeel, A little rich. Fruity and a little zesty in the end, warming fruity of dates and raisins. Aftertaste is very appealing a lingering warming mouthfeel, nice. I will have to buy another and save it for the end of days.

Jul 12, 2008 Pours dark brown- almost black with one finger beige head. Aroma is dominated by dark fruit- fruity malt, apple, raisin, plum, apriot, peach, and grape all show though. Flavor is powerful and prevalent, again riddled with notes of fruit and malt. Biscuit, and dark fruit take over. Palate is thick and rich with some definite creamyness- sweet finish. Another complex, well balanced and expertly crafted ale from this amazing brewery.
