Bottle at home. Aroma of malt, caramel, candy sugar, raisins, dried fruits, spicy notes. Flavour is medium sweet. Body is medium. Fairly typical Quadrupel, makes a decent attempt at emulating Westy 12 and/or Abt 12, but lacks the complexity of those master beers.

Bottle, bb 4/28. Very dark red with a dense beige head. Aroma of dark bread, prunes, almonds. Moderately sweet - not as rich as expectd with dried fruit, almonds, some licorice & roasted malt. Quite firm spicy bitterness at the end. Doesn't offer a whole lot for its strength.

Can @ Broadway Dive Bar, Manhattan (April 2023). Pours clear reddish brown with a small foamy beige head, sharp oak aroma, low carbonation, medium bitter caramel taste with woodsy flavor and alcohol undertones, smooth thin body, long finish with faint alcohol aftertaste. Not terribly boozy!

Tap at Sir James Pub. Quite flat...tastes old, in poor shape. Funky and soured, and odd, imperfect beer to say the least. Boozy, leathery, red fruit, vanilla. Not that good at all, quite poor for the style.

Bottled. Hazy dark brown colour with a beige head, that leaves some lace. Aroma is toasted, some oaky tones with dark chocolate, spicy yeast and mild alcohol with some dates and figs too. Flavour pretty much follows the pattern of the aroma. Actually less boozy than I expected.
