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.

Pours dark brown. with a hint of burgundy, carrying notes of fruit and spice. A wonderfully balanced brew with both bitternees and maltiness, in a perfectly suspended carbonated emulsion.

SamGamgee (2451) - down the whirlpool, California, USA - SEP 27, 2008
33cl bottle. Slightly hazy light brown with a medium head that leaves lasting lace and foam. Fruity, caramel, candi sugar aroma. Sweet, quite fruity in a bright and slightly tart way. A little brown sugar in the malt department. Med-full bodied and smooth carbonation. A bit of alcohol is mostly hidden by the massive sweetness. Pleasurable, but not a top quad by any means. Surprisingly smooth and drinkable for the amount of alcohol it packs though.

jujubeast6000 (854) - Houston, Texas, USA - SEP 21, 2008
(bottle): Pours a strong brown body, hard to see through. Average head, tan-whitish, diminishing. Heavy aroma of grape juice, that’s all I get, and not very strong. Alcoholy grapey taste, heavy, but not too bad an aftertaste. Very strong mouthfeel, a little fizzy but not soft. As it warms up, more fruit flavor, but also much alcohol flavor. A little smoother.

hombrepalo (1317) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - AUG 27, 2008
750 ml bottle, Mmmm those Quads! Deep orange colored beer with a cream colored head. Plummy aroma, belgian yeast, brown sugar, light spice. Flavor was fruity, light banana, yeasty, plum again, some booze. A touch hot, but the body was fairly nice. Need to be a bit more balance but not bad.
