In Extremis is a powerful Belgian quadrupel that has matured for three years in American and French red wine barrels. The barrels add a slightly spicy and fruity touch of cranberry, blackberry and licorice.

Bottle @ home. Clear, deep amber body under a small, fast disappearing beige head. Fantastic aroma, extremely complex, dark malt, chocolate, dry fruit, red wine, wood, tobacco, port, vanilla, leather, lovely and warning alcohol. Taste lives up to aroma, sweet, smoothly roasted dark malt, chocolate, dry fruit, wood, red wine, leather, spices, warming alcohol, balanced bitterness. Perfectly balanced body, really balanced and complex, not too sweet, fine and warming alcohol. Dangerously easy drinkable and still a sipper to be enjoyed over a really long time. Amazing well made beer.
