I located this 33 cl bottle with Smaakhuis, glad to have it. This tasting rates my Trappistes Rochefort glass, so I remove the lid and make the pour. The appearance is a dark copper body finished with a steady rim of fine tan bubbles. And there is a consistent stream of carbonation rising up, good to see. I smell figs, baked bread and alcohol. The glass is lifted and I have a drink. Raisins, malt, dates, some yeast, chocolate from somewhere, plenty of whisky and biscuit. A bit of sweetness on the front end and a decent bitterness at the finish. This a fine quadrupel. Tasty. I am surprised how much I enjoy whisky barrel aged beers, really don’t care much for scotch whisky on its own.

Bottle from Pede, dark brown colour, thin layer of foam. Nose of sweet dried fruit, vanilla, brown sugar, raisins, even some rum. Great sweet and warming sipper.
