Description
For years we brewed beers in our basement when we read an article in October 2010 about the Brouwland beer competition.We decided to risk our chances and sent our version of a Trappist beer, a dark beer, full malt, of 10%.In March 2011 we were informed that we were selected for the final. Beginning in April 2011 was ultimately the final.The seven finalist beers were tasted by beer connoisseurs, Zythologists Rijckers Anne and Yannick De Cocteau and some Belgian brew masters like Paul Arnott (Dubuisson), and Jean-Marie De Rock (Orval). The first beers were tasted and judged one for one, much was noted. Mutually there was not much talk together ,until they started our beer (the final seven beers were tasted in order of alcohol). All jurors began to talk to each other and two of them even gave us a thumbs up. Then, we knew it was good. After fifteen minutes of deliberations they announced the winner … Vliegend Paard Brouwers from Oedelem with their Préaris Quadrupel.

33cl bottle. Pours a dark brown, with a tall tan head that gives way to a sticky lacing. Smells of dark fruit, prunes, raisins, spices, a bit of dark chocolate. Tastes like cold milk coffee, cherries, chocolate and has a sweet-metallic aftertaste. A good winter warmer.

Vintage 2014. Opaque dark ruby brown colour, large frothy tan head, good retention, good lacing. Strong aroma, roasted malts, dried dark fruits, coffee, caramel, brown sugar. Taste is heavy sweet and medium bitter, malty, coffee, some toffee, with long duration. Full-bodied, creamy texture, soft carbonation, aftertaste is bittersweet, coffee, spicy notes, some alcohol. A well-balanced Quadruple, the coffee is present but not tot dominating (the alcohol likewise), very pleasant.

First tasted at Brugs Bierfestival 2016. 8/3/7/4/16=3.8.
Bottle from a Carrefour in Bruges. Time for a decent rerate. Pours hazy dark brown with a lasting, frothy, beige head; little lacing. Dark aroma of chicory, coffee roast, fondant, wet leaves, earth, dried fig, warm chestnut, kahlua. Light herbal bitter onset, note of earth and roasted coffee, quickly complemented by a medium malty sweetness, hints of dark fruits & chocolate, a bit sourish. Dryish, toasty & earthy hoppy finish, malty chocolate in the back, warming coffee liqueur alcohol. Medium to full body, creamy texture, fizzy carbonation. Still rich & pleasant; I would guess they enhanced the earthy character...
