A Belgian Quad by recipe, but aging it in spirits barrels garners its own category: Central Coast Quad. A beer formulated to sit on the sweeter and malty side so that we could utilize it for blending. Turbinado brown sugar from Mexico and Belgian candi sugar add wonderful molasses flavors. It has a full body and lush texture with barrel expression all over this beer: toasted oak, coconut, leather and cigar tobacco.

I've had this one before, but we just cracked into a 2015 vintage at the DC Beer share. Just had this, it's a decade old and really holds up. Quite nice. A little alcohol on Earth, nice sweet malt. Delicious
