44cl can at L'Esperteyu, Oviedo, Spain. Pours almost black, with minimal foam. Aroma is really intense, almost aggressive, with quite an impact from the hazelnuts, but also chocolate. Coffee feelings are more marginal. Can't feel the caramel much. Body is thick and sticky, with average carbonation. Taste is fairly sweet, lasting also in the final, with more hazelnut. Maybe the only defect of this beer is the overly dominance of hazelnut, which overshadows everything else.

I have a 440 ml can obtained from my main Belgian beer retailer quite a while ago. My experience with Basqueland beers has been rather positive so I have hopes for this quadrupel. A Belgian glass ready, I open the can and pour. The body is a La Trappe quad brown with a slender cover of very fine bubbles that is consistently recharged. I get a mostly traditional quadrupel scent. Ripe fruit, grain, yeast and a sweetness somehow. The drink continues the beer's traditional roots. Red plums, raisins, baked bread, malt, a small astringency, candy and paper. No let down for me in expectations, I have a decent quad here.

It is a great beer, all the things that you could expect from an IPA, perfect bitterness, hop, a little sweet, well balanced, de la puta m.. 19.10.16, tasting it at the Axor Feria Madrid.
