St-Feuillien Quadruple is a very dark and dense beer. She is noticeably alcoholic. She distinguishes herself by a complex and finely caramelized aroma and with shades of Madeira wine and candied fruit and an intense touch of fermentation esters (banana type). A slight hoppy smell (English style) completes the whole. The mouth is long with a powerful body built on the density and generous apparent extract. The bitterness is present but sweet and blends harmoniously with the malty struc- ture. The selection of special malts raises the chocolate side with the nuances of coconut. The saturation is average.

0.33 l bottle from 'Bierothek', best before October 2024. Gently hazy, dark ruby with a medium large, foamy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently yeasty-spicy, moderately fruity aroma of caramel, chocolate, raisins and prunes with a touch of overripe banana and clove. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, rather yeasty-spicy and slightly fruity taste of caramel, chocolate, overripe banana, clove, coconut, some raisins and prunes, followed by a medium long, gently bitter, rather yeasty-spicy, slightly roasty finish. Medium to full body, fairly effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Chocolate-forward Quad, rather roasty than fruity, fairly saturating. Not top notch but quite good nevertheless.

Another in the long running series of 'how the fuck have I not rated this?'. Almost opaque rich reddish brown beer, tidy tan head. Strong fruity nose, berries and ripe fruits along with some sweet malt and candyish esters. Palate is smooth and very slightly viscous, decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, a nice level of creamy sweetness, touch of caramel toffee underneath. Rich ripe fruits, prune and date slightly ascending the pack. Mild alcohol spice. Some mild sweet esters come to the fore in the semi dry finish. Nice. Now barrelling is in fashion in Belgium, this would be a nice one to stick in a brandy or tawny port barrel.

Bottle. A huge dark beige head forms over a lightly hazy and well sparkling auburn colored body. Nice curtains. Quite alcoholic aroma with prunes, raisins and some dried figs, some brown sugar and caramel. Yeasty hints, and a good dash of orange and pine cones. It's full-bodied and silky on the palate, appropriately carbonated, with some alcohol warmth, a light bitterness and some Belgo-style sweetness. Prunes, figs, caramel, brown sugar and a piney touch in the flavor. Lasting finish. A very pleasant quad indeed. A bit heavy on the carbonation, else nice. 220216

330mL bottle, pours a dirty dark mahogany with a large tan head with long retention. Nose reveals a wonderfully fragrant Belgian yeast character, with dark dried fruits, toffee, and some sweet esters -- very authentic and on-point. Flavour is rich and complex, with loads of dark dried fruits, toffee, caramel, intense Belgian yeast character, and plenty of alcohol burn. Moderately sweet for the style and extremely highly carbonated. This is definitely on the harsher side -- in terms of alcoholic kick -- compared to the greats (Rochefort 10, Abt 12, etc.). But the complexity is certainly there. The higher carb works well too. Wonderful stuff.

Sips of sweet malt with some nice toastiness, booze definitely in there too, but not overwhelming, a little oaky vanilla. Solid.
