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.

Possibly the strongest beer I've ever tasted. This beer has more flavour per oz. than any beer ever made possibly. A box of belgiams caramel in your mouth, if you like that, which i do. It smells like candy. Beer Hall sf.

2017 bottle (Grape & Grain). Dark brown with a beige head that's at the rim in a minute apart from the smear above the nucleation points in a La Trappe glass. 3- Aroma has more than plenty of Bourbon but also strong bread dough, dark sugars, raisins, dried figs and spices. Full bodied but despite being very sweet indeed it's clean (and bitter) enough not to feel really heavy. Some oak at the end assists too. But it is very sweet and the booze crowds the palate. I'd rather a pick up nuance approach to barrel ageing (assuming crazy things transform the beer into something else entirely is off the menu) but this is decidedly from the wet end.
