A 750 ml bottle that I have held back for several months, unusual because quads usually don’t last long around here. A globe glass catches the pour, a very dark body with amber at the edges and a frothy, light tan foam that has legs. I smell lots of ripe dark fruit and candi sugar. The taste is good but short of great. Plums, a touch of figs, grain, malt, some chewy leather and red cherries. It’s fine when I sample a new quadrupel, a nice rain shower at the new place too. Swell all the way around.
