Bottle. Color: Very dark ruby, light brown head. Taste: Roasted malts, pretty strong herbal, liquorice, hints of smoke and brown sugar. Lightly hint of wood. Medium sweet, combined with decent hopbitterness. Average to bit above average carbonation, medium body. Bit resinous. Bittery palate at finish. Ok beer, but could use some more balance and complexity.

Bottle, bottled 12.2017 (from hetbiermoment). Pours black with tan head. The head stays. Aroma is smoke, rubber, malt, some sugar. Flavor is sweet and bitter, smoke, some bacon, tar, rubber, fruits, spices, booze. Finish is harsh rubbery bitter with booze. Overall: a mess and not a quad in any thinkable way, but still drinkable.

Thank you for sharing people! Sampled bottled @ “Gouda Winterbier Festival 2016”. Dark red amber, tanned head. Nose is weird sweet vegetables, herbal, red fruits. Taste is weird herbal bitter leaves, booze, sugar, low carbonation, toast,… Low carbonation & oily. Not really bad but quite a weird mess, not too crazy about this weird concoction.

Dark blond with thick head. Lots of malts in the aroma. Slightly yeasty and spicy flavour with a weird twist of radleresque-citrus in the finish. Why?

Pint Winterbierfestival, Gouda 2016. Gedeeld met de ratebeer clan! bruin met beperkte kaki kraag. aroma van mout, zoet, vanille, graan, lichte hop. smaken zijn redelijk zoet, matig tot redelijk bitter van de hop voornamelijk, licht graan, teveel kruidige smaken, lichte citrus, iets gebrand, zit hier nu ook laurier in... in een quad ??.... weird ...
