22/XI/19 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ home, BB: 3/X/21 - (2019-1890)
Clear dark brown to black beer, big solid creamy beige head, stable, non adhesive. Aroma: caramel, soft roast, ripe banana esters, dried fruits, raisins. MF: soft carbon, medium to full body. Taste: nice roast, bit spicy, banana, some coffee, malty, little bitter, dry, some alcohol. Aftertaste: lots of overripe banana, banana peel, esters, soft roast, spicy, cloves, some cardamom, dusty, bit sourish, lots of alcohol, not a big fan of all that alcohol.
Paired with a lobster bisque, but didn't work out very well...

The 33 cl bottle was obtained from a friendly Belgian retailer, always fortunate to locate an untried quadrupel. I will lift into my Buffalo Bayou chalice for this tasting. The foam comes to greet me early, not a problem this time. The head is emphatic with a dense, doe-brown color. Underneath is a liquid that is as dark a brown you can get without being black. The scent pleasant, plum and raisin with a floral indication. And the taste now, better than anticipated. Cherry, dark fruit, bread and a curious hint of the vine. Some dubbelish qualities and a dry finish. Quite decent.

Bottle at home. Very clear blond colour with white bubbly head. Aroma is very grainy and very Belgian. Bit like a pared back tripel. Taste is bit bubblegum, some yeasty weirdness. Fruity too, orange and other citrus, but not overly bitter. Taste is interesting but quite restrained. Quite high carbonation too. Definitely interesting and glad I had it. Very saison like.

Bottle. Amber color. Malty biscuity aroma with red berries. Malty soft floral bitter biscuity flavor with red berries. Odd beer, Not really in balance, herbal. Sticky.
