Bottle 44/200. Dark brown with thin head. Aroma and flavour have lots of malts and caramel. Hints of dried fruits. Decent body. Not overly sweet. No trace of a alcohol. Feels like a 7% Bruin.

25/VI/21 - 75cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent), shared @ Gentse Biervereniging lambiektasting, BB: n/a, “199/-200 -2” (2021-533)

Little cloudy red to rust brown beer, big aery irregular beige head, stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: malty, some caramel, overripe banana, a bit sweet. MF: soft carbon, medium to full body. Taste: bit sweet, banana, malty, a bit oxidized, little bitter, hoppy touch. Aftertaste: malty, alcohol, little metallic, banana, soft roast, ripe banana, gentle acidity. Rather boring and bland.

The particular 33 cl bottle of Obsquur I possess came from Belgian Happiness. My New Belgium globe glass is down from the shelf and ready to receive. The liquid is on the lighter scale for quads, think along the lines of La Trappe’s Quadrupel. A heroic head of creamy, parchment foam follows the pour. I get a nose of dark fruit, malt and yeast, not unusual for the style. A drink gives me plums, nectarines, sour dough bread, malt, grain and just a hint of brown sugar sweetness. The sensation is not dense, something I prefer to have in my quadrupels. Nothing to object to here particularly.

Ruimtegist's second brew, a hefty quadrupel; 75 cl bottle from Dranken Pauwels, shared with Goedele. Eggshell-white, cobweb-lacing, thick and frothy, slowly breaking head on an initially clear, deep bronze-brown beer with vermillion red glow, misty with sediment. Aroma of hard caramel, brown candi sugar, old raisins, dust, straw bales, dried blueberries, sugared tea, dry earth, prunes, dry tree leaves, hints of 'drop', chewing gum, clove. Sweetish onset, old raisins and dried prunes with hints of pear and banana, fizzy and minerally carbonation, full and slick body, bit resinous; hard-caramelly maltiness, some brown sugariness on top but certainly not too sweet, brown-bready edge developing a mild toasty-bitterish character near the end; coriander spicing and a notable 'drop'-like flavour appear too, paired with soft herbal hop bitterness and much less soft, wodka-like alcohol dominating the tail and becoming rather wry and tiring in the end. Sleek, supple quad, alas a bit too alcoholic for me, the alcohol taste is actually noticeable in its pure form, but generally not badly made, with that unexpected 'drop'- or even liquorice-like accent you'll either love or hate. There is worse in this segment.
