Dark caramelized sugars and Belgian spice mingle over a warming, rich body. Some sweetness acts to downplay the strength.
We went as traditional with the recipe as we could utilizing Belgian Candi Syrup, European Pilsner Malt, Caramel Munich, and a host of other ingredients.

473mL can. Pours murky ruddy brown with large foamy white head. Aroma has a lot of candied sugar, some herbal notes, and maybe some Belgian yeast if I convince myself. Flavour also has a lot of candied sugar with a bit of herbal to offset. Burny toffee on the finish. Certainly a drinkable strong beer, but not a Belgian quad.

473 ml can. Pours a dark reddish brown with light head. Aromas of candi sugar, caramel raisins and bready malts. Flavors follow same with emphasis on sugars and almost doughy malts. A nice sweet malty beer but not really in style.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a fairy cloudy dark mahogany / muddled brown with a small beige head. Aroma is estery, with candi sugar, Belgian yeast, light floral notes, toasted nuts, and bready toffee. Flavour is somewhat boozy, with bready toffee, Belgian candi sugar, toasted nuts, and floral notes. Boozy, sugary and just not on point. Drinkable, but nothing I'd want to drink.
