does not count  Jun 19, 2008 well balanced nice cherry tone, 10% always a plus, roasted malts also, low head that vanished quickly but coated the glass , a nice finish to the beer would enjoy this one again.

does not count Jun 19, 2008 An extremely well balanced beer for 10%. The cherries get a little lost in all that alcohol but still prevail just enough.

Jun 17, 2008 A good one, very strong. 10% was noticeable, cherrries was noticeable but not overly so, smooth rounded taste which was quite complex, malts were a treat, nice finish.

Jun 17, 2008 Nice creamy, light brown head. Light malt and bread, with flower, dough, grape, and big cherry. Big pop when it opned. Very sweet. This beer was OK. I expected more of a quad taste, but it seemed a bit thin. Mostly just cherry.

Jun 16, 2008 A clear ruby-mahogany beer with a small brownish head that doesn’t last. The aroma is some spice, dark fruit (cherries, obviously), and some alcohol. The flavor is more of the same, with perhaps more emphasis on the cherries and a little sweetness. Some malty roast notes as well. Not a bad beer.

Jun 15, 2008 75cl bottle from Willow Bend Liquors (Tampa). Pours a dark, brown-red with one finger white-tan head that recedes slowly and provides lacing on the glass. Smells sweet and malty with notes of coffee and caramel. Flavor is malt, chocolate, caramel, with a slight bitter finish. Cherry lambic comes through more strongly as the beer warms from serving temperature.

does not count Jun 14, 2008 Thick, illustrious head, deep brown pour. Reminds me of the St. Bernardus Abt 12, but with a little more obvious cherry hint to it. Very complex...a lot happening. As one previous reviewer said, it hides the alcohol quite well. Very refreshing for a quad. Very nice mouthfeel. Purchased in New York City, enjoyed in Alabama.
level4 (24), New Jersey, USA
Jun 12, 2008 Pours a deep dark brown with small but lasting off-white head. I poured slowly so head could have been thicker. Aroma is nothing special but pleasant. Taste is complex and has a nice balance of minor cherry and maybe chocolate and plum. Many tastes going on here. It hides the alcohol fairly well. I’m more into lighter bodied styles but this is a nice quad.
