"A full barley vairation of our Rye IV. Our take on the heaviest of all Belgian classic, the quadrupel. We have used different layers of caramel malts and high quality belgian candi syrup to create a complex bouquet of dried fruits including plums, dates, dried raisins as well as notes of fresh cherries."

750 ml waxed bottle, bottled 22.07.2020. Dark red-brown body, big, creamy, lacing, beige head. Aroma dried fruits, caramel, cocoa, coffee, toast, dark chocolate. Tastes similar, a bit more roasty. Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with a low carbonation. Finishes medium sweet, medium roasty, a bit fruity, with cocoa, coffee, some dark chocolate. Very nice, although I was expecting even a bit more. A quite typical Quad, maybe a bit more roasty than usual. Balanced and comfortable to drink, but not that outstanding. Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 4 / 15
