Commercial Description:
A Quad for our Fifth Year in Business! Big and rich with lots of malt character and a nice balance of spiciness, sweetness and alcohol.

On tap at the brewpup. Clearly this is not a quad. It seems to be a belgian trippel if anything, much in the line of many De Dolle offerings but without the wonderful yeasty qualities. I got alot of candi sugar and some lighter fruits. A bit too sweet, and a bit too thin as well.

11/3/07 - Draft at brewpub. Orange ambe color. Nose is minimal, spice and malt. Touch of giniger and coriander, orange peel. Nice belgium. Again, ordinary for me, but good.

Draft. Brownish pour with minimal head. Complex aroma of candi sugary malt, figgy fruits, hops, some floral spices, and spicy molasses. Tastes dark fruity, with citric hops, some funky notes, and some candi sugary molasses hints. Not bad at all.
