Very dark brown with lasting thin head. Intense aroma. Lots of alcohol and wood. Some light sherry too. Flavour has the syrupy sweet intensity of a booze soaked prune. Primarily sweet and grainy but with layers of wood and alcohol. It's really punchy.

330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 14.5%, IBU 30. Black colour, moderate beige head. Aroma of roast malts, white wine and oak. Sweet flavour, more roasty than a normal quadrupel, notes of brown sugar, "spicy" white wine and oak, hints of chocolate and liquorice. Warming mouthfeel.

Bottle. A dark brown beer looking kinda clear. A small, firm, dark beige head sits on top. Some lacing. The aroma is quite roasted and boozy for a Quad, but sure delicious. It's herbal and spicy, making me think the beer might just as well be gin barrel aged just as well as white wine barrel aged. Dark chocolate, some coffee and molasses, dark dried fruits and some wood. It's full-bodied, warming, smooth and semi-sweet. Quite dry, yet rather sweet, even for a Quad, with rich tannins, alcohol warmth and a full body. The flavor too has lots of dark, roasted malts, with coffee hints, a good dash of dark dried fruit, some chocolate and molasses, wood and a herbal touch. Quite a lot of boozyness too, making me think more of some liquor than wine. A bit more pushing than I'd prefer, but still a dangerously easy drinkable beer. Well worth sharing though. Perhaps the first time I think the white wine barrel aged version is slightly more interesting than the red wine counterpart. Both (this one, and Roaring Fourties) are delicious though. Please don't enjoy at fridge temp. 220610
