We lieten onze quadrupel 6 maanden rijpen op Wambrechies whiskyvaten. Deze vaten hadden vooraf al Bourbon en Scotch whisky gedragen.

A flurry of beers from bierhandelwillems earlier this year, I'm sampling this one tonight. 33 cl bottle that tells me the abv is 9,5%. Cap is lifted and I tilt into a Straffe Hendrik large tulip glass. I see a La Trappe caramel colored body topped with a prudent skim of silvery tan foam. There's brisk carbonation too. Ooh, nice smell. Boozy right off followed by yeast esters, grain, plums and a bit of earth. The drink is fine too. Figs, chewy leather, malt, wheat bread, whisky and dates. Nice sensation, I call it full. Throwback quadrupel with scotch whisky, all right by me.

330mL bottle, pours a deep dark mahogany brown with a small beige head. Nose is full of strong whiskey barrels upfront, along with spicy Belgian yeast, gentle esters, and subtle dark dried fruits. Flavour has plenty of spicy Belgian yeast expression and boozy whiskey barrels in cohesion upfront, with subtle esters and a touch of dark dried fruits. The whiskey barrels are a bit harsh and the yeast expression is not the most complex. Finishes burnt, bitter, boozy, and somewhat estery. But it's not bad.
