Bourbon barrel aged blend of two great Western Flemish quads, bottle shared at Belgium Chimipalooza, apparently one of only 277 bottles ever made - exclusively for a ZBF edition... Loosely structured but still moussy, off-white head, cloudy burgundy brown colour. Aroma of dried banana, toffee, old sherry, balsamic vinegar, hazelnuts, dried mushroom somewhere, bourbon, wet oak, soggy brown bread, peach, orange peel. Soft sweet onset, banana, medlar and fig hints with a sourish blackberry-like undercurrent, soft fluffy mouthfeel, caramelly and bready malt sweetness with yeasty spicy notes, warming bourbon-like alcohol in the finish, some drying wood, but residual brown sugar sweetness dominates - without ever becoming cloying, however. World class quadrupel in every sense, but not quite at the level of e.g. Pannepot Grand Reserva.

2014 bottle at RBWG. It pours a hazy amber color. The aroma is nutty with some cocoa. The flavor is the same. Rich on the palate, chocolaty, nutty with some background fruit. Not much barrel. Tasty stuff.

Dark reddish orange. Smells really great. lots of fig, pear, apple, raisin, dark fruits and herbs. Nice spice up front and at the finish. Baked apples, cinnamon sugar, some tobacco and a lot of prune juice. just really well balanced.

Very dark brown. Aroma of grass and wood. Flavour is very dry and woody. Some sweet bourbon in the taste. Very dry finish.
