16 oz. can, courtesy of Ibrew2or3 (thanks Dave!) – can got punctured on the plane over, so I had to drink it immediately – pours a beautiful burgundy with a small beige head. Aroma has plenty of dark dried fruits (figs, prunes, dates, etc.), candi sugar, toffee, and a touch of maple syrup. Flavour is complex, with plenty of the aforementioned dark dried fruits, a substantial boozy kick, and mostly fermented out sugars. Much drier than some of the classic Belgian quads and not exactly authentic, but the malts are great, and the yeast is used pretty well. Excellent strong ale.
