Pours brown with red hues. Whit head that lingers. Dark fruits, Belgian yeast, and chocolate blend to create a deliciously rich aroma. Like the smell, Dark fruit and chocolate dominate the taste. A bit of booze at the end. Silky smooth. Dry finish. I’m really impressed with this beer. I’ve loved everything I’ve had from Ommegang and this beer did not disappoint. It fully deserves it’s reputation.

Clove, pepper, and banana Belgian yeast aroma with a hint of malty sweetness. Medium to full body mouthfeel. Sweet molasses mixed with caramelized candi sugar. The high carbonation is almost effervescent.

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Vintage 2011
12oz bottle served into a Duvel tulip.
A - Pours a purple garnet with a thick creamy off white head that acts like it’s the Terminator. A solid 1/4" collar that stays forever.
S - Sweet but tart cherries, bready yeast, brown sugar, rum alcohol, raisins, strawberries.
T - Cherry and raisins bigtime. Sweet grapes, peaches, figs, strawberries, full and robust earthy malt, sugary bananas, wood
M - Moderate carbonation, smooth feel, full bodied.
This is fruit forward but everything really works together to create a well rounded Quad. Love the cherry presence, while a green banana flavor really adds a layer to the robust caramel malt.

Tasted at mondial de la bière festival, in May 2013 in Montreal. The best one I tasted that day. It's sweet and tasty. I noticed some prune and fig flavor. Reminds me of some portos.
