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.

Dark mahogany colour, half inch of creamy beige head; aroma of dried cherry soaked into liqueur, burnt plum jam, dark chocolate, vanilla and caramel, as well as bourbon notes; taste has the same notes with herbal liqueur and slight licoric; definite sticke mouthfeel and spicy alcoholic aftertaste; it's a miracle rather than a beer!

Refrigerated brown bomber poured into a Trappist glass. Dark brown with small beige head. Aroma is raisin, medium body, medium carbonation, and pretty good lacing. Taste is dark fruit (mostly raisin), dark candy sugar, tobacco, and a little booze.

Backlog. Flaska från SB, vintage 2017. Mörk mahognybrun med beige skumpuck. Doft och smak full av rågbröd, mörk sirapslimpa, läder, mörkt socker, fikonmarmelad, tobak, bourbon, marsipan täckt i mörk choklad, likörpraliner, russin och en överlag rejält stor maltsötma. Stor kropp med en len och fyllig munkänsla med tydliga inslag från faten. Oklart vilka sorts fat som använts men jag gissar att det är bourbon. Landar någonstans mellan belgisk quad och amerikansk strong ale. Fantastiskt gott och välgjort, som så många av Firestones andra fatlagrade, större öl!

Bottle pour into whisky glass from Valley Beverage (2018 vintage). Appearance is clear dark brown with magenta/purple hues with no sparkle, thin ring of beige head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong, rich caramel, fruit and bourbon. Taste is smooth bourbon; caramel is more in the background than aroma and fruit even moreso. Palate is medium bodied with smooth, thick texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, I wish the taste had been as balanced as the aroma (and, perhaps with age it would) but even so the straighter bourbon is still delicious. A delight to drink.

Flaska från SB. Mahognyfärgade lågt skum. Mycket fin doft av fat, fudge, banantoffee, mörk torkad frukt, treacle, likörpralin, bröstkaramell, hostmedicin. Smaken är väl söt och inte lika komplex som doften. Gott
