Full bodied. Sweet but oaky flavor, malty with dried cherries and mango. Slightly alcoholic. Flowery hops and dried fruit in the aftertaste. powerful and flavorful beer with some complexity. ross (1709), weddington, South Carolina, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 20, 2007 Bottle from Ryan. Thanks. This is one I have wanted to try for a while, just never got around to trading for any of it. Pours out a light brown to almost red color. Smell is sweet and full of fruits, plums, and some hints of oak. Taste is sweet and somewhat spicy, no alcohol detected in this one. Yet another good one, this one sneaked up on me - I had no idea it was 11% abv. Good stuff, not in the leauge of the real quads, but certainly interesting and worth seeking out and trying.

Much paler than any other quad I’ve had. Light brett character on the nose, horsey yeast behind light sweet malts. Flavour is still very malty with lots of brown sugar, honey, toast, and a touch of brett character as well. Fairly lean body. Moderate sweetness on the back of the palate. A hint of raisiny character. Tasty brew, bit it ain’t no quad. Emil (6074), Copenhagen, Denmark

Bottle at Chris_O’s HogTownHarry minifest. Thanks to Chris. Amber colour with a darkish off white head. Sour aroma with malt and plenty off alcohol. Flavour is tangy and very sweet with some medicinal notes. Close to great but not quite there. I’m sure with a bit of age this would mellow and be much better. twindadplus2 (419), Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 13, 2007 Pours a clear cherry red with a fizzy head that faded fast. Aroma is mild with a sour, metallic tang. Tart and sweet with cherries and apples in the first sip and a yeasty tang. Oak and vanilla finish with the bourbon becoming more evident as it warms. Nice, light carbonation, on the verge of medium bodied but still feels a bit light. Still an excellent sipping beer that I’d love to try after it’s set for a year or two. The unplugged series has to be the best idea from New Glarus yet. keoki182 (305), West Bend, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 16, 2007 Very strong nutmeg scent to this beer, some hints of cherry as well. Mouthfeel was thicker, felt kind of like a delicious fruity syrup in my mouth. More alcohol flavor as the brew warmed. I definitely tasted the woody flavor from the barrels as it warmed. NG’s Belgian Quad, like any other quad I’ve tried, is not meant to be chugged. If you savor it slowly, this one will treat you well.
