Looks like I finish up the year with quadrupel from a brewery new to me. This 12 oz can was given as a holiday present, pleased to get one to sample. I have my Delirium snifter in place, ready to receive the pour. The body is a La Trappe-style caramel brown color with a modest but persistent skim of silver-tan foam. I find the scent to be attractive. Figs, grain, yeast, a sweet note and perhaps some spice. The drink, well, it does not quite keep up with the nose. Dates, yellow raisins, malt, straw, more of the spices, leather and bread. Slightly sweet and certainly chewy. Tolerably decent but not an above average quad, the competition is tough in my favorite style.

From a 12 oz can. Pours a hazy mahogany with a tan head. Aromas of raisins and toffee. Flavors are sweet caramel with a significant hop presence. Not in the same league as the Belgian greats but decent nonetheless.
