COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Urthel Samaranth 12 Quadrium Ale is a malty, full-bodied special Ale, brewed in a way that only Belgian Brewers can. Huge mouthfeel and layers and levels of flavor make Urthel Samaranth the perfect beer for the end of a meal or at the finish of a special day. And when you want something different, Urthel Samaranth 12 Quadrium Ale is with its fine bitterness, definitely something different... Try it! First brewed at Van Steenberge, now brewed at Koningshoeven - La Trappe brewery.

nearbeer (2572) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - MAR 2, 2009
33 cl. Lasting creamy foam atop this mostly clear, deep-copper brew. Nose of pears and apples baked in brown sugar and earthy spices. Flavor is similar, with just a dash of rum and then some oak on the finish. Body is delicately smooth and dry. Nice creamy frosting left on the glass.

Without any expectations, I was surprised by the great, spicey aroma. Liquorice, port, caramel.

Plovmand (4693) - Helsinge, DENMARK - FEB 21, 2009
Bottle. Reddish brown hazy body with a beige head. Lots of ripe fruit like prune and raisin i aroma as well as port and loads of malt. Creamy soft body. Flavour is prune, spices, liqorice, caramel and some alcohol.

Koningshoeven has certainly put out better Quads than this. There was nothing particularly wrong with it, I just wasn’t impressed with as I have been with other brews from them. Nothing seemed to make this beer stand out from quads.

Bontus (481) - Waasmunster, BELGIUM - FEB 4, 2009
Bottle 33cl. Pours ruby brown with a beige sticky head. Aroma’s of ripe fruits, raspberries, figs, bubblegum, hint of liquorice, sherry and alcohol. Sticky but only medium bodied. Only downside is this light body for this ABV. appears as if the alcohol volume was pumped up keeping the aroma’s (especially nose) intact but making it more watery. But overall a good beer, it reminds me of Gulden Draak.

jebb12 (46) - Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA - JAN 21, 2009
Flat, odorless, thin, low carbination. All the worse qualities that have a tendency to express themselves in average beers of this genre.

ambrata schiuma media discreta pertsistenza note intense malto etilico nocciola anche in bocca poco luppolo

iammarc (236) - Inverness, SCOTLAND - JAN 10, 2009
Bottle, beers of europe. Quality ale, Dark body. Caramel notes, liquorice is well defined. A good heart-warmer, gives you a rosy glow and sends you to sleep after a hard days work. Nice...
