Strong dark ale brewed and dryhopped with natural vanilla extract and vanilla beans. A sweet complex taste supported by a soft roastiness by the dark malts, packed in an elegant creamy texture.
A rich, complex, sweet, malty dark beer with hints of toffee, vanilla, candy, milk chocolate, dark fruits, raisins and plums.

Tasting thuis, fles van mij bij Van Alsem vandaan. Dikke alcoholische bak met lekkere fruitigheid. Druiven, port, dessertwijn. Goeie smaak maar alcohol nasmaak is killing.

Bottle shared thanks to Sjogro. Almost black with big dark beige head. Licorice, sweet port wine, fresh grape juice, pear juice, molasses, lots of sugar and maple syrup and sweet fruit juice. Light spices and quite some alcohol. Very sweet with alcoholic bitter finish. Full bodied with thin alcoholic finish. Massive alcohol, but otherwise not that bad.

Dark brown color, good brown head. Light toastyness, brown sugar and some alcohol in the nose. Full-bodied, quite active carbonation for this kind of beer. Candy sugar, light chocolate. Very sweet Quadrupel. Sweetness covers the alcohol. Probably gains some from aging. Components are not in balance.
