Urthel Samaranth

Brouwerij De Leyerth
Brewed at De Koningshoeven (Bavaria - Netherlands)
Style: Abt/Quadrupel
Ruiselede, Belgium

Serve in Trappist glass

Bottle pour to Trappist glass gives dark amber color with yellowish thin but persistent head. Aroma was sour and dare I say a bit skunky. I can’t find a bottling date on this unfortunately. Taste sour, alcohol very apparent. Aftertaste medicinal, alcohol. Disappointing.

Orange-amber color. Small head, disappears quickly. Smell off liquor or something... some prunes. Sour sweet. Weird taste, almost no carbonation, a bit like wine-liquor. The taste is not bad, but this is not ’beer’ like i’m used to. This is normal. Lots of alcohol at the aftertaste, nothing hidden... The more i nip, the more i think this is not beer, or this is not normal... This beer makes my favorite abt-style goes down! Maybe have to re-try it one day... But I’m not gonna buy this again, so it have to be a gift or so...

Dark amber/cider color; Medium slightly creamy body; Aroma of malt, yeast, some dark fruit, & caramel; Flavor of sweet malt, yeast, caramel, hops, dark fruit (notably plums), raisons, and spice; Alcohol at the finish; Nicely balanced and complex; A solid quad - I did enjoy it.

pours a muddy brown with billowy white head. smell is of alcohol and some spice with dark fruit being faintly in the back. taste is hot with alcohol as it warms it seems to be even more not well covered at all. very lil taste of sweets some spice. could really get in to this beer

.3l bottle from Rare Beers in Budapest. Pours a deep ruby-brown with a shiny foam head. Lots of alc wafting off this one, but in a nice way. Port, berries, molasses too. Body is tidy and thick, a touch oily and rich with alcohol. Bite from the 11% is well hidden but it warms nicely. Very clean taste that is smooth and demure. Carbonation is mild. Cherries, rum, apple. Pretty good quad, but lacks that last oomph. Still, I wish I had it around!

grande birra! ottima all’olfatto con uno spiccato sentore di miele e caramello che si ritrova anche nel gusto dove si percepisce anche un retrogusto di barrique molto interessante. forse mi aspettavo qualche cosa di più dal palate che poteva essere più marcato.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Very dark brown ale with an good taste of dried-fruits. A good brew from the La Trappe mash tuns.

Golden color with not much head. Fruity aroma and malty biscuit taste. Interesting but not bad.
