Belgian-style Quadruple 🍺
The strongest of the Belgian Ales originally brewed by Trappist Monks
It’s dark brown in colour, with rich caramel, dark sugar and malty sweet flavours dominating the palate
We used @fieldfivefarm malted Pilsner and wheat as the base, with some specialty malts and dark candi sugar brought in from Belgium
(released Nov 2022)

This is very dark, near black, with medium sized beige head. The aroma is mild, some malt, caramel. It's full bodied, sweet, with a good base of malt, caramel, candi sugar; luckily it avoids the common traps for the style this part of the pond (no bubblegum etc); there is a tiny amount of celery that integrates well; it gets richer in the finish, toffee pudding; hiding the alcohol quite well.
This is one of the most enjoyable, North American Quads I ever had.

Poured from 650mL bottle @ Weathered 2023. Dark brown with small beige head. Belgian yeast, burnt sugars, bread crust, doesn’t quite come together. Average.

650mL bottle, pours essentially black with a medium tan head. Aroma brings out burnt sugars, some Belgian yeast, bready caramel malt. Flavour had lots of burnt sugars, Belgian yeast, bready malt, and a little burnt rubber. Too burnt but the sugars are nice. Not an authentic quad but pleasant enough as a miscellaneous dark strong ale.

650 ml bottle. Pours a dark brown with light head. Aromas of bread crusts, copper, candy sugar, and raisins. Flavors follow same. A little soft compared to a typical Belgian quad but quite nice
