Full bodied, light spritzy carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced boost.
Tidy sipper.

Can. Pretty much a clear amber beer, decent bubbly pale head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. A quad in a Madeira barrel could be a sweet mess. Not so here. A light bodied malt base provides a good caramel and mildly toffee vibe, not that sweet. The quad brings the expected ripe fruits with less esters that you might expect. Madeira barrel adding a very mild oak induced vanilla and light but savoury ripe wine soaked ripe fruits. Light tangy and, fairly intense ripe fruity finish, that also brings a savoury wood that is a good balance to the sweeteners of the other elements of this brew. Everything just feels right and well in sympatico. Very nice quad.

330ml can, #890, vintage 2024. Bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Shared with Finn. A steady off-white head over a brown-dark reddish body, near-clear, fair lacing. Attractive on the nose with ripe fruits and a scent of madeira. Solid taste character of vanilla oak, ripe fruits, caramel, and a madeira twist. Mid-dry ripe fruity finish with vanilla moments towards a lingering finish. Well bodied. Slow sipper qualities. (Tromsø, 07.06.2025).
