I was fortunate enough to acquire a 33 cl bottle from Finest Belgian Beers a couple of months ago. I can appreciate most any quadrupel but one that is barrel aged? The sky is the limit. My Chimay glass is in place, I view a rich brown body with practically no head at all. I take a sniff to get cane syrup, stewed fruit and alcohol. The taste comes with a burn, I'll say that right off. Black plums, grain, malt, figs, a significant boozy presence, candi sugar and field. Unfortunately lacking carbonation, likely just this bottle. It would have been better but still is a credible quad, I detect the potential. I would like to try another.
