Almost black with a frothy, beige head. Sugary, candy-like aroma with a bit of burntness. Prunes. Taste is mildly bitter up front, sweeter at the back with a hint of cherry. Medium-bodied, slightly watery texture, moderate carbonation. Some thinly disguised alcohol at the finish. A bit rough, and lacks the depth of the better members of the style. Drinkable.

A 33 cl bottle acquired from one of the Belgian retailers that offer such things. Pulling a tulip glass out of the cabinet to catch the pour, I see a fully black body with a minimal but steady head of medium tan foam. And the scent, I get a big dose of dark fruit and some yeastiness. The taste, ah yes, pretty fine. Black raisins, dark plums, malt, grain, cane syrup and dates. Certainly some sweetness here, a small bitterness and a sensation of creaminess. All the attributes of a decent quadrupel including the elevated abv. Enjoyable, but then I do like my Belgian styles.

330ml bottle. Opaque, darkest brown colour with average, thick, firm, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, beige head. Sweet-ish, yeasty fruity and minimally dark malty aroma, notes of red and dark berries, hints of plum, raisin, cherry, some chocolate. Taste is sweet and bitter, yeasty fruity and minimally roasty, chocolately dark malty, dry hints of fruit parings, raisin, plum,cherry, dark berries, hints of alcohol soaked, dried dark fruit, some hop bitterness, papery overtones, some alcohol; minimally warming, alcoholic finish. Watery texture, dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation. A tad too boozy for a rather simple and clear amount of flavours, not really catchy - OK.

33cl Fles van De Laat. Donkerbruine kleur, beige kraag. Zoet, moutig, donker fruit, bruine suiker, drop, bitterzoete finish. Medium body, licht alcoholisch. OK Quad, iets te zoet voor mijn smaak en mist wat diepgang. Ik verwacht iets meer bij Black Fuel, al heb ik de fascinatie van de Belgen met Channel Zero nooit begrepen.

Zwart bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is zoet en licht bitter met iets van bosvruchten, drop en anijs. Erg fijn bier.
