Tap at the brewpub. Pours very dark and ruddy with an off white head. Full bodied. Flavor is mildly tart blackberry with not very smooth dark malt. Not much Belgian yeast/spice. No heat for me. Darkly fruity. Dang nice.

On tap at Chuck's on 85th, pours a deep dark red with a small beige head. Aroma brings out floral notes, berries and some caramel. Flavour brings out caramel, dark fruits, and bready notes. Boozy and caramely, with a fruity finish. Good stuff.

No blackberry to really speak of. But a very drinkable quad. Low esters. Low etoh. Light sweet. Not very nuisanced malt. Noice 838315
