Alot of vanilla on top of the already sweet QUAD... a definite improvement on it.

Oct 6, 2008 Yep, there’s that sugary-bourbon-vanilla-wood scent. Rich sweet and very mellow. Flavor pops at first with a burst of heat, slight vanilla and caramel malt. The yeasty quad aspect is so relaxed, this is almost like a well-refined barley wine. Oh yeah, beautiful dark amber with a small head. As this warms up it just gets better and better, smoother, sweeter and more complex.

Oct 4, 2008 Pours a deep orange-brown colour with a fast fading head. Aroma is quite nice. Soft sweet orange-peel and plummy character with a touch of cherry as well. Fairly light vanilla and bourbon that integrates pretty nicely with the lightly spicy esters. It’s a little bit vineous as well. Flavour wise, it’s pretty good, but a little bit boozy. Peppery alcohol and a little bit of light Belgian spiciness. A hint of peachiness along with a sticky sugary sweetness on the back. As it warms the bourbon really picks up. OK, but way too hot and boozy

Oct 3, 2008 22oz bottle. Pours a hazed, dark ruby brown with a small beige ring for a head. Nose was very sweet, tons of vanilla, bourbon, oak and caramel. Flavor was also very sweet with all the components mentioned above with a good boozy kick. Very impressed with this Quad.

Sep 27, 2008 POURS NICE AND DARK. VANILLA AND OAK TASTE. TASTE VERY MUCH LIKE A CARBONATED GOOD RED WINE. TASTE VERY MUCH LIKE A RED WINE AND IS AS HIGH IN ALCOHOL CONTENT.

Sep 17, 2008 Bottle, purchased in Surf City, NC, opened at Fancy Beer II in Columbus. It’s a combination that I thought wouldn’t work, but damn it tastes good. The barrel aging complements the strength of the quad.
