Belgian Style Quad Ale
12.8% abv
Growler
Black Forest Brew Haus
Sullivan’s Black Forest Restaurant
Frankenmuth, Michigan, USA
My Strength Rating: 6.5 one word ‘alcohol.’
This ale pours a burnt amber color with golden highlight. Not much in the head department but, that is another story; oops I am talking beer here. No lading at all.
Dark dry fruit and candy coated malts on the nose.
That candy coated malt quality just smacks the palate and screams Belgian sweetness all the way home. The alcohol spice and high content is very noticeable with each sip. And, a sipper it is. The raisin like note and the touch of caramel seem to take a back seat to the alcohol and candied sugar.
This is worth trying, by the glass at the brew pub, to see if you like it.
